WHO WE ARE                                                                                      

In 1957, Metropolitan Pump Company began operations from a "home" office in Western Springs, Illinois and was subsequently incorporated in 1967. Since that time, Metropolitan has evolved into a one-stop shop for pumps, controls and ancillary equipment covering the municipal, commercial, HVAC, industrial and residential water and wastewater industries.

The company is headquartered in Romeoville, Ill., 25 miles southwest of Chicago and occupies a 100,000 sq. ft facility that houses over $6 million in inventory and employs 130 people.

One of the keys to the Metropolitan's success is its ability to quickly expand into new markets. For instance, given the current state of U.S. energy policy and the move toward "Green" technology, Metropolitan has trail blazed the path with such products as variable-speed, energy-reducing pump systems, solar powered water products and environmentally friendly wastewater systems.

Metropolitan believes in research and development and has a dedicated staff assigned to the design, introduction and deployment of new technology to make our end-users more productive and efficient in the field.

The company believes in "Single Source Responsibility" which means one company, one phone call to make when you have a service issue or question.

Part of our commitment as a pumping systems leader includes sharing our expertise within the industry by conducting seminars designed for engineers, water/wastewater operators and city officials. Seminars cover design, service, technology advances, etc., and most satisfy state requirements for continuing education requirements.

So who is Metropolitan? It is best summed up by just saying The Pumping World's One Stop Shop!
