  • Did you know2024

    Xylem's flagship US pump plant in Seneca Falls, New York has been manufacturing pumps continuously since 1848 — making it one of the oldest active manufacturing sites in America. The site was formerly ITT Goulds Pumps; Xylem was spun out of ITT in 2011. The Seneca Falls campus is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Despite its age, it remains the engineering hub for North America's most widely used agricultural centrifugal pump lines (IRRI-GATOR, Ag-Flo).

  • Origin2023

    Xylem was created in 2011 when ITT Corporation split itself into three independent companies: ITT (defense electronics and industrial components), Exelis (defense, later acquired by Harris Corporation), and Xylem (water technology). The water pump and treatment assets ITT had assembled over decades -- including Flygt pumps (acquired 1968, originally a Swedish pump maker), Goulds pumps (acquired 1997, founded 1848 in Seneca Falls NY), and Bell & Gossett (founded 1916 in Morton Grove IL) -- became the new standalone company. The name 'Xylem' was chosen to evoke the biological transport system plants use to move water, signaling a strategic identity as a technology company for water infrastructure rather than just a pump manufacturer. Since its spinoff, Xylem has acquired Sensus (smart metering infrastructure, $1.7B, 2016) and Evoqua Water Technologies (water treatment, $7.5B, 2023), transforming from a hardware pump company into a water technology platform.
