Sustainability

Combining engineering expertise with environmental responsibility

Since 2017, sustainability has been part of our DNA at Gorman-Rupp Europe. With roots going back to 1933, we’ve always believed in smart engineering, quality you can count on, and long-term value. That same mindset now drives our environmental approach.

We call it “Where Blue Meets Green.”

Blue reflects over 90 years of engineering know-how. Green shows our commitment to reducing environmental impact with practical, reliable solutions that help customers move forward sustainably. It’s how we build, performance and responsibility side by side.

Certified CO₂ reduction strategy – CO₂ Performance Ladder

Gorman-Rupp Europe is certified on the Dutch CO₂ Performance Ladder, a Dutch sustainability standard that drives measurable reduction of carbon emissions. It helps us track, improve, and reduce our carbon footprint. It’s built into our daily operations to save energy, deliver measurable results, and meet certified goals.

Our energy policy? Work smart, minimize waste, and support customers’ sustainability targets.

Electrification in the field, Gorman-Rupp E-Line Series

Gorman-Rupp was the first to come up with integrated solution where electrically driven pump sets can be connected to a standard construction power outlet, a mobile battery pack, or even an existing car charging station. That was a breakthrough at that time !

Today, we have a wide range of E-Line electric-driven mobile pump sets offering a flexible, future-focused solution for reducing emissions on the job sites. These latest technology units combine mobility, reliability, ease of use, and environmental performance- ready for today’s demands and tomorrow’s challenges.

HVO ready / HVO geschikt

Diesel Power, redefined with HVO

All Gorman-Rupp diesel-driven pump sets meet the latest EU Stage V emission standards and are fully compatible with HVO diesel, a renewable fuel made from residual waste streams. This enables a certified CO₂ reduction of up to 89%, without changing equipment.

Energy-neutral building

Our European office in Waardenburg is equipped with a solar installation, making the facility electrically energy-neutral. Each year, we produce more energy than we consume- contributing clean power back to the grid.

Sustainability in daily practices

We make sustainability part of our daily operations:

PeelPioneers

Our facility is cleaned using citrus-based products made from peel waste

Fairphone

Modular phones with ethical sourcing and longer lifecycles

No AdBlue

Our standard range Stage V diesel pumps don’t need AdBlue, making them easier to use and cleaner to run

Driving Industry Change Through Collaboration

We actively contribute to sustainability within our sector by participating in several leading initiatives.

ERA (European Rental Association)

Sustainability Working Group

De Groene Koers

Promoting low-emission, quiet equipment in the rental market

ISCC

Certified member of the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification program

Built for Long-Term Value

At Gorman-Rupp, sustainability also means smart design. Our pump systems are engineered for easy maintenance, long service life, and minimal downtime that directly contribute to sustainable outcomes.

By reducing the need for frequent repairs, replacements, or service visits, we help lower energy use, cut waste, and minimize emissions over the full product lifecycle. It’s a practical, efficient approach that benefits both the environment and the bottom line.
