In the company’s own words
Unless the context otherwise indicates, references to "Flowserve," "the Company" and such words as "we," "our" and "us" include Flowserve Corporation and its subsidiaries.
Flowserve's goal is to create extraordinary flow control solutions to make the world better for everyone. We are a world-leading manufacturer and aftermarket service provider of comprehensive flow control systems. We develop and manufacture precision-engineered flow control equipment integral to the movement, control and protection of the flow of materials in our customers’ critical processes. Our product portfolio of pumps, valves, seals, automation and aftermarket services supports global infrastructure industries, including energy, chemical, power generation and general, which includes water management and pharmaceuticals, where our products and services enable customers to achieve their goals. Through our manufacturing platform and global network of Quick Response Centers ("QRCs"), we offer a broad array of aftermarket equipment services, such as installation, advanced diagnostics and turnkey maintenance programs.
Flowserve has a clear growth strategy as we transform our operations to better meet our customers' needs. Our overarching strategic objectives are to remain a global leader in the flow control industry and capitalize on growth through our traditional end markets as well as through specifically identified growth areas, such as the nuclear, energy transition and power generation markets. We seek to be recognized by our customers as the most trusted brand of flow control technology in terms of reliability and quality, which we believe will help maximize shareholder value.
In pursuit of these objectives, we maintain a strategic plan that takes a balanced approach to integrating both short-term and long-term initiatives and accelerates growth through three key areas: diversification, decarbonization, and digitization (the "3D Strategy"). The goal of our 3D Strategy is to utilize our leadership in the flow control industry, and through our commitment to research and development ("R&D"), create innovative products and solutions which address the emerging climate and environmental issues that our customers face. In addition, the Flowserve Business System helps guide the enterprise on incorporating best in class operational practices within the following categories: People Excellence, Operational Excellence, Portfolio Excellence, Commercial Excellence, and Innovation Excellence (the "Flowserve Business System"). We believe that our 3D Strategy, improved execution through our operating model and the Flowserve Business System, and continued innovation efforts will drive long-term revenue growth and profit expansion. For further discussion of our operating model, see the Executive Overview in "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 ("Annual Report").
