The History of the Gorman-Rupp Company
Gorman-Rupp was established in 1933 by J.C. Gorman and Herb Rupp. Its initial product line included a simple self-priming centrifugal pump. It diversified its product line during WWII when it was contracted by the U.S. Military to develop specialized pumps. This service led to the company’s increased growth as well as the diversification of its product line. In 1950, Gorman-Rupp Industries was established, producing the first centrifugal pump for the appliance market through its Mansfield Line. GRI is now known as an innovative pioneer in the industry, regularly designing advanced products that meet unique needs. Its products are known for increasing efficiency, quality, reliability, and safety of the environments in which they are used.
