The History of ipp

Founded in 2004 in the Osnabrück region of Germany, ipp manufactures high-tech pumps at its Bersenbrück facility, employing a highly skilled workforce and sourcing components largely from the local area.

Used worldwide in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries, ipp pumps offer reliability, hygienic design and efficient handling of sensitive media.

Since June 2025, ipp has been part of PSG, a Dover company, a global leader in pump and fluid-handling solutions. This integration strengthens the company’s international market presence and expands its portfolio in advanced rotary lobe pump technologies.
