From Blackmer

Over the past several years the manufacture of soap and detergents has become a more complex process with changes in raw materials, the introduction of new chemicals, changes in ingredients, expensive fragrances, colorants and preservative additives, and advanced soap-making processes. With this in mind, traditional pumping technologies no longer meet the demands of reliability, product loss prevention, environmental protection, and process efficiencies. However, as the processes have evolved, sliding vane technology has emerged as the technological leader, and the preferred pump choice in soap and detergents manufacturing.

Products & Services
Chemical Pumps
Chemical pumps are designed for applications requiring greater reliability and durability than conventional pumps.
Wastewater Pumps
Wastewater pumps are used in the collection of sewage, effluent, drainage and seepage water.
Positive Displacement Pumps
Positive displacement pumps use a mechanical force such as gears, bladders, pistons, plungers or diaphragms to push liquid through and out of the pump.
Peristaltic Pumps
Peristaltic pumps use rotating rollers pressed against special flexible tubing to create a pressurized flow.
