Spirax Group plc, formerly Spirax-Sarco Engineering plc, is a British manufacturer of steam management systems and peristaltic pumps and associated fluid path technologies. It is headquartered in Cheltenham, England. It is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is a constituent of the FTSE 100 Index.

History

Charlton House, the company's head office in Cheltenham

The Company was founded by Herman Sanders in 1888 and after a Mr Rehders joined the business, established as Sanders, Rehders & Co. ('Sarco') in London importing thermostatic steam traps from Germany.[3] It started to manufacture steam traps in United Kingdom under the Spirax brand name in 1932 and was first listed on the London Stock Exchange as Spirax-Sarco Engineering in 1959.[4] In 1960 a range of self-acting pressure controls are introduced for the first time: then in 1963 it bought Drayton Controls, a control valve and instrumentation business.[5]

The company diversified into pump manufacturing in 1990 when it bought Watson-Marlow.[6] It acquired the Jucker Industrial Division, an Italian controls business, in 1993,[7] Bredel Hose Pumps, a business manufacturing high-pressure hose pumps, in 1996[8] and M&M International, an Italian piston actuated and solenoid valve business in 2001.[9] In September 2005 it acquired Mitech Actuators & Controls and Proportional Control Technology, a pair of South African businesses making process controls.[10] Then later that year it bought EMCO Flow Systems, a metering business.[11]

The company acquired Intervalf, a Turkish operation, for £2.8m in 2009.[12] It completed a new facility in Shanghai, China in June 2010: the plant, designed as Spirax's regional headquarters, combines a factory, warehouse, and offices.[13]

In 2011 the Minister for UK Trade & Investment, Lord Green, opened the new Spirax Sarco facility in Saint Petersburg, Russia[14] and in May 2012 the Deputy Prime Minister, Nick Clegg visited Spirax Sarco’s manufacturing facility in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire.[15] In May 2012 there was a shareholder revolt after Spirax-Sarco paid a former Executive Director compensation of £783,660; the company compounded the problem by failing to inform the markets of the shareholder revolt as required by the Listing Rules.[16] Then in November 2012 the company bought Termodinámica, a distributor based in Santiago de Chile[17] and in February 2019 it bought Thermocoax, a US based business involved in the manufacture and supply of mineral insulated cable.[18]

In February 2024, the company announced its intention to rebrand as Spirax Group, subject to shareholder approval.[19] It changed its name from Spirax-Sarco Engineering to Spirax Group on 3 June 2024.[20]

Operations

The company has three main operations: (i) Steam Specialties,[21] (ii) Electric Thermal Solutions[18] and (iii) Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Solutions.[22]
