The Gorman-Rupp Company was incorporated in Ohio in 1934. The Company designs, manufactures and globally sells pumps and pump systems for use in water, wastewater, construction, dewatering, industrial, petroleum, original equipment, agriculture, fire suppression, heating, ventilating and air conditioning ('HVAC'), military and other liquid-handling applications. The Company's product line consists of pump models ranging in size from 1/4' to nearly 15 feet and ranging in rated capacity from less than one gallon per minute to nearly one million gallons per minute. The types of pumps which the Company produces include self-priming centrifugal, standard centrifugal, magnetic drive centrifugal, axial and mixed-flow, vertical turbine line shaft, submersible, high-pressure booster, rotary gear, rotary vein, diaphragm, bellows and oscillating. Many of the larger units comprise encased, fully-integrated water and wastewater pumping stations. The Company's pumps are marketed in the United States and internationally through a broad network of distributors, through manufacturers' representatives, through third-party distributor catalogs, direct sales, retailers, and e-commerce. The Company has long-standing relationships with many of the leading independent distributors in the markets it serves and provides specialized training programs to distributors on a regular basis. In 2025, Gorman-Rupp shipped its pumps to approximately 140 countries around the world. The Company benefits from its large base of previously installed products, which periodically require replacement parts due to the critical application and nature of the products and the conditions under which they operate.
