Who makes it

Supplier companies

4 companies produce electric pumps and motors.

Franklin Electric(FELE)

HQ US22% share

Leading manufacturer of submersible pumping systems for groundwater, fuel, and agricultural irrigation.

Grundfos

HQ D 18% share

Largest pump manufacturer globally; ~$5B revenue; centrifugal and submersible pumps for irrigation

Xylem Inc.

HQ US15% share

Xylem Inc. (NYSE: XYL; HQ Washington DC area; ~$8B+ revenue post-Evoqua) is the largest US-headquartered water technology company following the $7.5B acquisition of Evoqua Water Technologies in 2023. Xylem provides industrial water pumping systems, filtration, dewatering, and treatment for mining — critical for slurry transport, mine dewatering, and process water recycling. Evoqua brought large-scale industrial water treatment systems including advanced oxidation, UV disinfection, ion exchange, and membrane filtration used in hard-rock mining operations. Xylem also manufactures submersible pumps for mine dewatering — removing groundwater that floods underground mine workings. The pumping and treatment technologies Xylem supplies to mining operations are identical to those used in US military field water purification units and naval ship freshwater generation systems (dual-use).

KSB SE & Co. KGaA

HQ DE10% share

German pump and valve manufacturer (Frankfurt Stock Exchange: KSB, HQ Frankenthal, Rhineland-Palatinate; ~€2.8B revenue; Frankenthal family/foundation controlled); produces centrifugal pumps (Etanorm, Multitec series) and submersible motor pumps for agricultural, municipal, and industrial applications. KSB was founded in 1871 as Klein, Schanzlin & Becker in Frankenthal — making it one of Germany's oldest industrial pump manufacturers. KSB pumps are used in irrigation systems across Germany, France, and in major water infrastructure projects worldwide (KSB supplied pumps for the Three Gorges Dam in China and multiple desalination plants in the Middle East). The same Frankenthal pump manufacturer serving 1871 German agricultural customers now pumps water through the irrigation systems supporting modern farming in MENA drought regions.
