A pump manufacturer since 1912. We build engineered pumps for the world's hardest fluid duties — and stand behind every machine we ship.
Our roots trace back to 1912, when Issey Hatakeyama established the “Inokuty Type Machinery Office,” a pioneer in pump manufacturing originating from Japan. Every product we have shipped since then has been a pump — or a system built around one.
Today, EBARA engineers pumps for five global markets — oil & gas, power generation, water & wastewater, building services and industrial process — supported by a service network that spans 100+ locations. Our brief, unchanged across a century, is to make pumps that run longer, draw less energy and need less intervention than the customer expected.
The top three elements in our ethics framework are collectively called the “EBARA Way.” Regardless of business segment or where in the world we are doing business, the EBARA Group is committed to acting with passion and dedication.
“Passion and Dedication” is the motto advocated by our founder, Issey Hatakeyama. Both employees and the company strive for growth with passion and dedication — bringing forth innovative ideas rather than simply fulfilling the task at hand. It is part of the EBARA Group's DNA, passed down through generations.
We contribute to society through high-quality technologies and services relating to water, air, and the environment. It is the mission of the EBARA Group to develop our core competencies, products, and services to create solutions for the issues facing the world today.
Driven by a competitive and challenging mindset, this “Global One Message” embodies the EBARA Group's commitment to the future — to lead the category, and to exceed every stakeholder's expectations of what we are responsible for.
The cadence of EBARA's history is the cadence of fluid engineering — pumps for water systems, then refineries, then power plants, then upstream offshore, then descaling, and back to municipal infrastructure as the duties got harder.
Issey Hatakeyama founds the “Inokuty Type Machinery Office,” a pump-manufacturing venture originating from Tokyo Imperial University.
The operation is formalised. The doctrine of “Netsu to Makoto” — passion and dedication — is adopted as company law.
Brazil becomes the Group's first manufacturing foothold outside Asia — the beginning of a forty-year build-out into Europe, the Middle East and the Americas.
EBARA tools up for heavy-duty hydrocarbon service — single- and double-stage process pumps engineered to the new API 610 standard for refineries worldwide.
The SPR / SPRB family is introduced for the most punishing duty in a power plant — feeding super-heated water into a high-pressure boiler under aggressive thermal cycling.
EBARA renews its global website based on the design concept of “flow,” the Group's core technology — expanding information on each company and on E-Vision 2035.
EBARA Precision Machinery Europe celebrates its 40th anniversary, with distributors and partners across eight countries.
The Group's long-term vision sets a multi-decade brief for the energy transition, water security and the social value of EBARA's installed base.
The leadership team is structured around the six pump families and the markets they serve, with the Office of the CEO setting Group strategy, capital allocation and the E-Vision 2035 framework.
