Blagdon (IDEX) Pumps » Visit Blagdon webSite
Blagdon Pump was founded in the early 1950's in the North East of England as a specialist pump manufacturer. In 1979 production of Air Operated Double Diaphragm Pumps commenced and Blagdon soon became the market leader.
In 1997 the US based multinational "IDEX Corporation" acquired Blagdon Pump to strengthen their global position in the double diaphragm market.
Blagdon Pumps produce high quality Air Operated Double Diaphragm (AODD) pumps that have long been recognised as the "Work Horse" of industry for handling "difficult" liquids at relatively low pressures and flows. The equipment Blagdon produce will handle almost every media thrown at them by utilising a wide range of body materials, diaphragms and valve ball types. A wide range of the Blagdon pumps are also EHEDG, ATEX, ISO compliant.
