BURLINGTON, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--October 08, 2025-- 
 
   CIRCOR International, Inc., a KKR portfolio company and a global 
manufacturer of flow control products for industrial and aerospace 
markets, today announced that it has acquired essentially all the 
operating assets related to the herringbone gear pump product line of 
Flowserve Corporation $(FLS)$. The transaction includes the GAX, GR, 
& Gearex Series pump lines, which will be fully integrated into CIRCOR's 
IMO product portfolio following a transition period. There will be no 
disruption to existing or future customer orders. 
 
 
   This acquisition fills targeted product portfolio gaps within CIRCOR's 
Pumps Americas offering, enhancing its ability to serve established 
end-markets such as chemical processing, power generation, and general 
industry. Engineered for durability and performance, the herringbone 
gear pump line offers key features such as stainless steel construction 
and intermittent dry-running capability. It is also designed to handle 
high-viscosity fluids, elevated temperatures, and critical service 
applications. 
 
 
   "We're excited to bring this proven product line into the CIRCOR family, 
" said Tony Najjar, President and CEO of CIRCOR International. "These 
pumps align well with our strategic priorities in Pumps Americas by 
enhancing our offering for high-viscosity and specialty applications. 
Our Columbia, Kentucky facility is well-positioned to absorb this 
production delivering greater commercial focus and operational 
efficiency for our customers." 
 
 
   Production of the acquired product line is expected to transition to 
CIRCOR's Columbia, KY plant in the coming months. During this period, 
Flowserve will continue to support manufacturing and order fulfillment 
under a transition services agreement.
