JDV Equipment Corporation

What JDV Equipment Corporation does

JDV Equipment Corporation is a privately held New Jersey corporation that designs, manufactures, and services industrial equipment for municipal water treatment, municipal wastewater treatment, industrial processing, and agricultural applications. Founded in 1965 (with the firmographics registry listing 2010, which appears to reflect a more recent corporate registration event), JDV traces its effective engineering heritage to the 1940s through the 1995 acquisition of Ralph B. Carter Corporation. The company operates three integrated product lines: Solids Handling (shaftless and shafted conveyors, belt conveyors, RAM compactors, spiral presses, rotary drum thickeners, screening equipment, grit classifiers, submerged grit screws, step screens, screening compactors, and the Level LODOR™ odor control system); Anaerobic Digestion (Turbomixer™ mixing systems, nozzle mixing systems, sludge heating systems with tube-in-tube heat exchangers, dual deck truss digester covers, and dual membrane gas storage/holder covers); and Water Treatment (Walking Beam Flocculators carried over from the Carter acquisition, and Baleen Filters). Revenue is generated primarily through engineered, quote-based equipment sales to enterprise and municipal buyers, supplemented by spare parts and lifecycle customer support, with a direct enterprise field sales motion collaborating with owners, consulting engineers, and plant operators from initial consultation through implementation.

The company reports over 50 years of industry experience and more than 10,000 successful process equipment installations across all 50 US states and internationally (Caribbean, South America, Europe, Middle East, and Asia-Pacific). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the website provides downloadable PDF brochures for each product family and a contact form for sales engagement. JDV holds registered trademarks on Turbomixer™ and Level LODOR™ and operates from its New Jersey headquarters with an 11-50 employee footprint. No external funding rounds, parent company, or institutional investors are disclosed, and ownership structure remains private. The company presents as a stable, specialty industrial OEM with long product cycles, a heavily relationship-driven GTM, and no disclosed AI, software, or digital services offerings.
