EnglishWhat is Flowserve?
Updated
Flowserve is an industrial flow control company. It manufactures and services pumps, valves, seals, and automation equipment used in essential infrastructure industries. The company positions itself around "moving, controlling and protecting the flow of materials" in what it describes as the world's most critical industries.
If you are trying to identify what kind of supplier Flowserve is — for example, to decide whether to source a pump, valve, or seal from them, or to find a service provider for existing equipment — the sections below cover what the company offers and where to start on its site.
What Flowserve makes and services
Flowserve's product portfolio covers flow control solutions across several categories:
| Category | What it covers |
|---|---|
| Pumps | Standard to engineered pumps for demanding fluid handling |
| Seals | Mechanical seals and sealing systems for a wide range of applications |
| Valves | Engineered for performance, safety, precision control, optimized flow, and fail-safe shut-off |
| Actuators and instrumentation | Actuators, positioners, controls, switches, and accessories |
| Energy recovery devices | Solutions for SWRO desalination, described as the industry's most energy-efficient |
Beyond products, Flowserve offers services and repairs, specialists and consultants, and literature and brochures — the four entry points listed on its site for getting support.
Who it serves
Flowserve targets industries where flow control is tied to essential infrastructure — the kind of environments where equipment failure or contamination carries high consequences. Its recent announcements point to specific areas of focus:
- Nuclear and engineered valves — through the acquisition of Trillium Flow Technologies' valves division, adding nuclear valve solutions and OEM lifecycle services.
- Turbomachinery lifecycle support — through the acquisitions of Greenray and Allen Steam Turbines, aimed at aging and legacy gas and steam turbine fleets.
- LNG regasification — the Cryogenic Submerged Motor Pump – High Pressure (HP) Series, built from the company's LNG experience for efficiency, reliability, and serviceability.
- High-purity mixing — the LMX Cartridge Lip Seal, a carbon-free, dry-running seal for top-entry mixers where contamination risk matters.
How to use the site
The homepage is organized around a few practical paths:
- Find products — start from the Product Portfolio to browse pumps, seals, valves, actuators and instrumentation, or energy recovery devices.
- Get support — choose Product Sales, Services & Repairs, or Specialists & Consultants depending on whether you need to buy, fix, or consult.
- Read documentation — the Literature & Brochures section is the place to look for technical materials before contacting anyone.
The site also invites visitors to contact a representative to learn more, which is the direct route if your question is application-specific.
When Flowserve is the right fit
Flowserve is worth considering when you need flow control equipment or lifecycle services for demanding, high-consequence applications — particularly in energy, nuclear, desalination, LNG, and other critical infrastructure. If your need is a standard pump or valve for a less demanding setting, its portfolio still spans "standard to engineered," so the range is broad rather than limited to specialty work.
What the site does not state is pricing, lead times, or whether any resources require an account. Those details are best confirmed with a representative rather than assumed.
