during 1926 , walker crosweller and company negotiated with clement wells to commence selling sarco manufactured steam traps in the uk . since the sarco trademark belonged to the british company ( sarco engineering and trading company ) , the traps had to be sold under a different name . the trade name “spirax” was chosen , deriving from the helical , spiral tubing which formed an integral part of the steam traps .

the history of spirax sarco dates back to 1888 when mr herman sanders established a general merchant business in london and , shortly after , began selling steam traps .
during 1939 , all walker crosweller and company staff involved in selling spirax equipment were transferred to the spirax manufacturing company , dissolving the partnership between the two companies .
our spirax sarco steam specialties business is the global leader in the supply of engineered solutions for the design , maintenance and operation of efficient industrial and commercial steam systems .
following world war 1 , clement wells of sarco company inc . began to look for an outlet for sarco steam traps and thermostats in the uk and on 28th april 1921 the sarco engineering and trading company was established as a subsidiary of sanders , rehders and company in london . the company was established specifically to sell the steam traps and temperature regulators being manufactured for sarco in the usa . during the same year , walter crosweller , an employee of sanders , rehders and company , left sarco to establish a business with james walker . the company became walker crosweller and company .
in 1952 , spirax bought sarco co . ' s remaining u . k . interests ( a process completed the following year ) and renamed itself spirax - sarco ltd . at that time , a new u . s . - based company was formed , sarco international corporation of new york , or simco , which acquired the sarco steam trap rights outside of north america . simco opened two new european businesses , sarco appareils pour la vapeur , in paris , taking a 49 percent stake , and a sales office in belgium , established in 1952 . two years later the company launched a manufacturing operation in konstanz , germany , sarco gmbh , a joint venture in which simco controlled slightly more than 50 percent .

spirax - sarco acquired two other cheltenham - based companies in 1957 , john such & sons and heat transfer ltd . , in a move to diversify its product range . john such , founded in 1909 , manufactured tools , jigs , and other engineering equipment and tools . john such also manufactured heat exchangers designed and distributed by heat transfer ltd . , which had been set up just one year earlier . the two acquisitions enabled spirax - sarco to expand its manufacturing base , adding some 20 , 000 square feet to reach a total of 50 , 000 square feet of production space .
over the next decades , spirax - sarco continued its growth , through both acquisitions and international expansion . acquisitions helped the company diversify its product range , such as its purchase of bir - vac ltd . in 1961 , adding a line of industrial and special - purpose vacuum equipment . in other areas , spirax - sarco started up its own businesses , such as the launch of theta controls ltd . in 1963 , adding electronic thermostats for the residential market .
among the most significant acquisitions made by the company was that of drayton controls ltd . in 1963 . that purchase doubled the company in size and extended its operations into such product ranges as filled thermostatic systems ; domestic , commercial and industrial controls ; and advanced sterilizing equipment and other hospital equipment . the company in the meantime continued its international expansion , adding subsidiaries in the netherlands , austria , and singapore . in 1972 , spirax - sarco added an australian component , soon followed by operations in new zealand as well . spirax - sarco then entered the japanese market in 1973 . later , spirax - sarco ' s presence in asia expanded to include china , taiwan , malaysia , thailand , korea , and other markets .

throughout world war 2 , the spirax manufacturing company came under the wing of the admiralty . in 1942 , amidst coal and oil shortages , spirax was introduced to the ministry of fuel and power and offered guidance on improving boiler efficiency . for the remainder of the war several spirax employees became involved in the technical fuel efficiency committees , the fuel education committee and oliver lyle’s steam panel .
before long , sarco u . s . became a primary manufacturer of sarco - branded steam traps and apparatus , starting export operations to the european continent - - and to the united kingdom . sanders , rehders by this time had reduced its role to that of a selling agent for sarco products , changing its name to sarco thermostats and moving to cheltenham . at the same time , sarco opened its first foreign subsidiary , in toronto , canada , in 1926 . that company was led by eric wells , brother of clement wells . at first operated as a sales office , the canadian business set up its own manufacturing facility in clairmont , ontario , in 1941 .

in 1946 , clement wells gave permission to the spirax manufacturing company to export to denmark . until this time , overseas selling was conducted from america . six years later , in 1952 , clement wells formed sarco international to look after the overseas interests of the american company .
the spirax manufacturing co . remained in london for the first half of the 1930s , then , after acquiring sarco thermostats , moved to cheltenham in 1937 . that purchase gave the company the right to use the sarco brand name as well . in the years leading up to world war ii , the british company acquired a second branded line of steam traps , ogden , after purchasing the english company ogden & cunliffe . by then , spirax had been granted the rights to trade in the united kingdom ( excepting canada ) , ireland , denmark , holland , portugal , sweden , and norway , while the u . s . - based sarco reserved the rest of the world ' s market for itself .
by 2003 , spirax - sarco ' s sales neared £300 million , and the company had established clear leadership in two core product categories . the company remained committed to expansion , both internationally and organically . in 2003 , it bought its south african peristaltic pumps distributorship from that country ' s walter becker , for £1 . 3 million . at the same time , the company announced its plans to spend £250 , 000 to expand watson - marlow - bredel ' s production capacity by 2004 . spirax - sarco seemed far from losing steam as it entered the new century .
during world war 1 , an embargo on german shipping threatened to cut off the supply of steam traps to the usa so sarco company inc . purchased the patent from their german suppliers and appointed roller - smith , a manufacturing company based in bethlehem , pennsylvania , to manufacture steam traps on their behalf . roller - smith continued manufacturing steam traps for sarco company inc . until 1935 when sarco established its own manufacturing plant in the usa .
spirax - sarco engineering plc , the world leader in the control and efficient use of steam and in niche fluid technology , announces the establishment of a new wholly - owned operation through which it will commence direct selling into the indian market , which has good medium and long - term opportunities for sales and profit growth . an agreement has also been signed on 1 st march 2015 to exit the long - standing joint venture in india with forbes marshall private limited , with completion expected before the 31 st march 2015 .

during 1963 spirax sarco acquired drayton controls , a significant competitor in self - acting controls and steam traps . this acquisition doubled the size of the company and extended its operations into such product ranges as filled thermostatic systems ; domestic , commercial and industrial controls ; and advanced sterilising and other hospital equipment .
the history of spirax - sarco dates back to 1888 when mr herman sanders established a general merchant business in london and began selling steam traps . today , we have our company headquarters in cheltenham , uk , and have 114 operating units providing the global network through which we serve customers in over 110 countries .
at the beginning of the 1990s , spirax - sarco made a new move to diversify and expand its operations . in 1990 , the company paid £15 . 3 million to pharmaceutical group smith & nephew for watson - marlow . founded in buckinghamshire in 1956 , watson - marlow had been a pioneer in developing pumps based on the peristaltic system for the hospital market , leading to its acquisition by smith nephew in 1977 . over the next decade , watson - marlow began expanding beyond the medical applications into a variety of markets - - many of which were shared with spirax - sarco - - although maintaining a specialty of small - scale pumps .
the 2017 plant engineering salary survey looks at not just what plant managers make , but what they think . as they look across their plants today , plant managers say they don’t have the operational depth to take on the new technologies and new challenges of global manufacturing .
in november 1937 , the spirax manufacturing company moved to cheltenham . the lease on its london property was coming to an end and industries were being encouraged to move out of london due to the fear of impending war . cheltenham was chosen as it had already become home to walker crosweller and company , which continued to handle sales of spirax products .
by then , spirax - sarco had been forced to overcome a bump in the late 1990s , after the company shut down its allentown plant and moved its u . s . manufacturing operations to south carolina . the company had underestimated the cost of moving , especially training costs after a majority of its former pennsylvania workers refused to relocate with the rest of the company .
the depression once again made foreign shipments too costly - - this time , however , its was the u . s . - based business that sought a manufacturing partner overseas . in 1932 , ha smith and others , including later company chairman lionel northcroft , established a new business in london to manufacture the sarco steam traps , but under a different brand name : spirax .
despite this episode , spirax - sarco continued its slow but steady growth , making a series of acquisitions at the turn of the century . in 1998 , the company moved into spain , buying the safety valve operation of especialidades hydra , based in barcelona , for £3 . 1 million . in 2000 , the company added m & m international , based in italy , paying £6 . 8 million for its solenoid and piston - activated valve manufacturing operation . the company returned to italy at the end of 2002 when it acquired milan - based ampe , a maker of pneumatic and electronic instrumentation and actuators . by then , the company had expanded its australian subsidiary as well , acquiring marford engineering for £1 million , based in brisbane .
the addition of emco complements our existing range of steam flow meters . emco also brings proven flow measurement solutions for commercial and industrial liquids and gases that will enhance the application breadth of our process instrumentation product portfolio ,
spirax sarco , inc . , president mark vernon said .
emco has a rich heritage of product innovation , and we intend on accelerating the development of new products that are already under consideration .
sarco ( from sanders rehders & co . ) , as the company and its products became known , developed into a leading engineered steam products group . in 1908 , the company set up a sales office in new york city , sending clement wells there as the company ' s representative . sarco quickly developed into a full - fledged company ; when imports of steam traps became too expensive during and after world war i , wells transformed sarco inc . into a manufacturing operation , opening a plant in allentown , pennsylvania . wells then extended the company ' s production to include thermostats and other temperature regulators , all the while sticking to the company ' s focus on steam .
spirax , however , asked investors to note a ' normalised ' earnings figure that strips out the exceptional item . on that basis earnings for 1992 were a little higher at 18 . 8p . shares rose 8p to 357p yesterday .
four - fifths of spirax ' s profits are generated overseas . but the global nature of the business gives rise to a problem with advance corporation tax . the total tax charge was 40 per cent , compared with 35 per cent last time .
our people are our most important asset and also our greatest competitive advantage ; it is through their dedication and hard work that we achieve success for all stakeholders . we recruit high - calibre employees and invest extensively to develop their knowledge , ensuring that we meet the needs of customers and deliver outstanding value to shareholders . during 2016 , we established the spirax sarco academy , with an independent budget and leadership team , to oversee delivery of the learning and development programmes of the steam specialties business ' s customer - facing staff .
the two acquisitions bring spirax ' s former trading agent in italy , jucker , into the group , costing pounds 5m in cash plus the assumption of pounds 8m of debt . it has also paid pounds 1m for a 25 per cent stake in its spanish licensee .
taxable profits were pounds 23m , up from pounds 22 . 5m . tight cash management reduced debt , and the lower interest charge could have boosted profits . however , spirax took losses on the disposal of a business into the pre - tax figure - in line with the new frs3 accounting standard .
the great depression and britain ' s decision to leave the gold standard meant that it was no longer economically viable to import steam traps into the uk from the usa . thus , in 1932 the spirax manufacturing company was established in london by clement wells and walker crosweller to manufacture steam traps in britain .
in 1888 , mr herman sanders established a general merchant business at 108 fenchurch street , london . a year later , mr rehders joined in partnership and in 1890 sanders , rehders and company ( sanders , rehders and company , i . e . sarco ) was established and began importing steam traps and recording instruments from germany . the business prospered and sanders , rehders and company became a limited company on 1st january 1907 .
the industrial revolution and the adaptation of steam power to a variety of industrial uses opened up vast areas of entrepreneurial development , as steady advances in technology required new engineering solutions and products . the use of steam - - a powerful , clean source of heat - - introduced a need for a device to drain off water condensation while retaining the steam itself . the resulting device was called the steam trap , and one of the earliest manufacturers was a british firm called sanders , rehders & co . that company was formed to make and sell steam traps and other steam power - related parts , devices , and equipment in london in 1888 .

2 . benchmark co . analysts commented ,
we view steve’s 10 , 000 + share purchase as a reasonably strong statement of belief in a combination of the medium - long - term outlook as well as the current valuation of the existing asset base , and suspect the purchase will prove prudent over the next 12 months regardless of any interim noise . with all of the attention on the publishing results , and given some challenging core results ( as well as weakness across the entire sector ) , we think mdp’s broadcast asset is being overlooked . while it’s hard to gauge if a sale is being considered down the road ( tax and spin implications make a near - term sale challenging ) , the firm has a strong portfolio , with 4 duopolies in the top 31 dmas , which we have already seen drive retrans leverage within our universe ( we note mdp’s other line jumped from $ 64 . 2 million in f2q18 to $ 88 . 9 million in f3q18 ) .

can you help us keep our history of pumps up to date ? ( image courtesy of shutterstock . com . )
since this time line was published five years ago , we have received various updates and comments – many of which have now been incorporated where possible . suggested additions should be as brief and accompanied by a date .
to help us bring this time - line up to date , please leave your message in the ' comment on this article ' box at the foot of the article , but you must be registered and logged in first .
one trend has been the increasing importance of niche positive displacement pumps , particularly rotary types . peristaltic , progressing cavity and rotary lobe pumps have all risen in profile as their capabilities have been introduced to new markets by improved communications . increasing competition has meant that users have been more inclined to experiment in the search for the ideal pump for difficult duties .
the trends that have affected all of us have also had their impact on the pump market . increased environmental awareness gave a real boost to pumps without shaft seals . magnetic drive and canned motor units have thrived and even produced a hybrid combining the two technologies . pump shaft sealing has also changed dramatically . asbestos in packing is outlawed and today the vast majority of new pumps are supplied with mechanical seals , often in factory - assembled cartridge format to avoid the risk of face damage during handling .
materials have also developed . sea - water pumps have seen gunmetal and aluminum bronze replaced by highly alloyed super - austenitic and super - duplex stainless steels . new non - metals have made possible tiny pumps for human implant . ceramics and tungsten / silicon carbide have vastly reduced wear rates in pumps of all sizes . even large sub - sea variable speed super - synchronous drive motors for pumps are now possible .
electronics and computers have overtaken all our lives and inevitably have entered the physical world of pumps in the form of variable speed drives ( vsd ' s ) , scada systems and condition monitoring equipment . integral vsds on in - line pumping units now dominate the building services market . pump selection software has speeded up the process of choosing a pump , as well as opening opportunities in marketing . for the designer , cad and cfd have reached new heights . they can now interact but they still have some way to go before they fully replace personal expertise .
life cycle costing has become a part of everyday life and has shown that energy costs usually eclipse all other lifetime costs . vast savings are frequently realised by system improvement but appropriate legislation is practically impossible to formulate . although pump efficiency improvements give relatively small returns for large outlays , legislation for raising efficiency now exists in korea and china . the european commission , as part of its energy using products directive , has targeted the raising of efficiencies of water pumps . europump has been instrumental in assisting the ec in this task and has proposed a method for eliminating bad performers .
we are all aware that in recent years , discussions about the pump industry have been dominated by talk of mergers , takeovers and disposals . indeed , as we consider the major pump makers of 2009 , it is hard to name one which has not changed markedly since 1959 .
itt , idp , sterling fluid systems , grundfos , wilo and abs have changed almost beyond recognition . established independent makers like harland , flygt , worthington and now weir pumps have disappeared , whilst newer names like textron , constellation capital , idex , pentair and flowserve have arrived on the scene , continuing the trend for the biggest companies to get bigger .
other interesting changes include diversification . for example , after more than 50 years of providing submersible motors to pump makers , franklin electric has ‘pulled the plug’ and now buys pump companies to produce its own units .
mind you , it is also interesting to note from the chronology of the pump industry listed below , that even in the early years of this magazine mergers and acquisitions were not unknown and ever since there has been a continuous environment of change .
probably the biggest single change in this industry has been the transition from a local to a global marketplace . fifty years ago we had only national trade associations but today the significant impetus in inter - company relations is at intercontinental level . the europump association has grown massively in stature and effectiveness in its 49 years , and now works in close partnership with the hydraulic institute in the us . this partnership reflects ever closer cooperation between pump manufacturers ' associations , a development that mirrors this magazine ' s evolution from national through european to global coverage . ♦

my wife and i shopped for a new heat pump and cooling system for our vacation rental home in hilton head island , sc . we found freedom air heating and air conditioning and talked extensively with them about our needs and goals for achieving operating efficiency and savings . michael and edgar were great to work with . they responded with a great system and a great competitive price . the installation was performed as promised meeting our timeline . the owner of the company came by to review the work and to check on our satisfaction . this is a great way to do business . i recommend this company highly .
my recent service provided by freedom air conditioning has been exceptional ! i have received professional treatment from the first phone call to the completion of the job . jim is great at explaining what is going on & how to fix it on a level i could understand . i liked that he could give me a window of arrival time & usually arrives earlier . i thought his price for replacing my entire a . c . unit was reasonable & my electric bill was $ 100 less the first month . if all businesses ran the way freedom runs this would be an awesome country . thanks to you & every member of your team ! ! !
until i watched the freedom air dvd , i had no idea that new zealand was so beautiful . once again , the pilots do a wonderful job of briefing us - and the first flight of the program from hamilton to brisbane filmed entirely in the cabin was great . my favorite part of the dvd is the take - off from wellington - looks like an absolutely great place to visit . another highly recommended program ! !
initially , control was held by mount cook airline but was later transferred to parent air new zealand . the airline beat its competitor out of the market with kiwi travel international ceasing operation in 1996 .
freedom air was based in auckland and operated a fleet of boeing 737s through march of 2008 . this program takes you on domestic flights between the 3 destinations it serves on this network as well as on a roundtrip across the tasman . you will sit in the cabin for 1 flight and in the cockpit for all others . also included are interviews with the airline ' s vice president and general manager as well as the line operations manager in hamilton .

interview : eric foner , author of ' gateway to freedom ' while writing his new book , historian eric foner relied on a recently discovered record of slaves ' escapes . he says the documents paint a
revealing picture
of life on the underground railroad .
this is a follow - up to my review of 6 / 30 / 16 . today , 8 / 3 / 16 , freedom heating and air conditioning made a good faith effort to restore their name and reputation . they replaced my entire hvac unit at no cost to me . and as james anderson promised , i ' d be treated the same as if i had paid for this unit . not many businesses go to this extent to restore customer confidence and / or reputation . i believe we can move forward with our newly restored business relationship .

we had freedom here to service six or seven of our units they were very professional and courteous and always on time recommendations were good and i love the way they operate . i would like for them to come to georgia and do some work for me if they come that far ( savannah ) my number is 912 - 844 - 6298
foner ' s new book , gateway to freedom : the hidden history of the underground railroad , focuses on new york . according to foner , the city was a crucial way station in the railroad ' s northeast corridor , which brought fugitive slaves from the upper south through philadelphia and on to upstate new york , new england and canada .

in september 1947 , the united states established a separate branch of the military for the united states air force . this event led to the renaming of shaw army airfield to shaw air force base in january 1948 . with the hobson plan now in place , shaw became home to the 20th fighter - bomber wing which activated on august 15 , 1947 . shaw afb also housed the 363rd tactical reconnaissance wing , the 432nd tactical reconnaissance wing , the 4411th combat crew training group , the 66th tactical reconnaissance wing , the 363d fighter wing , and the 363d tactical fighter wing ( 363d tfw ) .
floyd did a very good presentation today and knows his job . he was eager to help me find a way to get me a new air coditioning unit . we went through all of the financing options and waiting to see if i get approved now . i was definitely pleased at what he was able to today .
he did an outstanding job presenting the project for me . floyd was very professional , friendly and took his time explaining everything . we needed new central air and some of the things he told us we didn’t know we needed to know such as space in our attic or crawl space . he was mailing everything easier for his technicians . we thank him
the airline continued to operate into the early 2000s , transitioning from the boeing 757 to a fleet of boeing 737 aircraft . by 2004 the airline had five boeing 737 - 300 aircraft in its fleet . freedom saw routes from the australian east coast to cities in new zealand , including flights from secondary cities in new zealand such as hamilton , wellington , dunedin , and palmerston north . out of those cities , only wellington and dunedin still have trans - tasman service .
floyd gave us our options and made me feel relieved with the option that we chose . we currently were worried about the dust , pollen and mildew possibly getting out of hand with our indoor unit . however , he explained to us every little detail and how the indoor air quality works . i didn’t want to buy a new inside unit just , because it was building up in my house . i made a decision and feel better now . thanks
to my favorite comfort advisor . very thorough in his explanations . he demonstrated all his skills and used so many tools . i can’t hear as good in one air and he’s very patient . my nurse came by today to see me and my son is out town at the moment and with all that he waited for my nurse to get done checking me and my son to get done out of his meeting . bright young man you’ve a great employee .
today , floyd did an excellent job going over options with us on replacing my old air conditioning system . he came out did a load calculation and explained to us what that was and how it works . he was also patient and always told me to take my time when i was rushing . i’ve learned a lot from this young man in just a few hours of him being here . would definitely recommend anybody to him if looking to buy a new unit .
a lot of information we have of the underground railroad is really memoirs from a long time after the civil war and you know . . . people ' s memory is sometimes a little faulty , sometimes a little exaggerated ,
foner tells fresh air ' s terry gross .
so here we have documents right from the moment these things are happening — and it ' s a very unusual and revealing picture of the world of these fugitive slaves and the people who assisted them .
the end of the cold war led to significant reductions in u . s . military personnel in europe after the berlin wall fell . the 20th fighter wing was transferred from the now defunct flight line at raf upper heyford , england and reassigned to shaw air force base in december 1993 . since the move to shaw afb in 1994 , the 20th fighter wing continues its involvement in numerous missions including operation uphold democracy in haiti . they supported nato operations during the kosovo war and enforced no - fly zones over iraq during the 1990s .
in the mid - 1980s commercial mobile telephony took to the air . the north american terrestrial system or nats was introduced by airfone in 1984 . general telephone and electric soon bought out the company . the aeronautical public correspondence or apc service breaks down into two divisions . the first is the ground or terrestial based system ( tapc ) . that ' s where aircraft placed telephone calls go directly to a ground station . the satellite - based division , which came much later , places calls to a satellite which then relays the transmission to a ground station .
