PSP Pumps

What PSP Pumps does

PSP Pumps Pvt. Ltd. is an Indian industrial pump manufacturer founded in 1983 in Kolhapur, Maharashtra, by Pratap Shankar Patil. The company designs, develops, manufactures, and services centrifugal pumps and positive displacement pumps across 22 models covering ISO 2858 process pumps, ANSI B73.1 chemical pumps, heavy-duty slurry pumps, froth pumps, vertical turbines, multistage pumps, liquid ring vacuum pumps, progressive cavity pumps, lobe pumps, external gear pumps, and industrial hose pumps.

PSP's technological core combines centrifugal and positive displacement pump architectures with proprietary sealing solutions, including a 1998-patented springless zero-leak design for high-viscosity abrasive sugar products (magma, massecuite, dry seed), dynamically sealed centrifugal pump technology refined since 2005, and a newly patented heavy duty universal joint for progressive cavity pumps. Manufacturing is conducted across five plants covering more than 25,000 square meters, with computerized machining, in-house pattern making, testing facilities, and multiple assembly sections. An in-house pump service school at the Kagal T-block facility trains dealers, contractors, OEMs, and end users on pump maintenance.

Revenue is generated almost entirely through B2B hardware sales of pumps to industrial customers across chemical, petrochemical, sugar, mining, mineral processing, wastewater, water and irrigation, power generation, food and beverage, automotive, pharmaceutical, and oil and gas sectors. Distribution combines direct enterprise sales for customized pump solutions with a global dealer/distributor network; pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. PSP claims worldwide product presence with thousands of pump installations in demanding applications across multiple continents.
