CP Pumpen company history: Grown up in Switzerland

What started in 1948 as a small manufactory grew into an international company that now operates all over the world. We are proud of the progress our company has made.

As an independent Swiss pump manufacturer, CP Pumpen has been writing its own success story since 1948. Its company history is marked by major changes. At the same time, we have always remained true to our principles of quality and safety.

Over all these years, many people have contributed to the history of CP with their expertise and passion. Thanks to them our company has grown steadily and sustainably since its foundation.
