Layne/Verti-Line Pumps
As an authorized distributor of Layne/Verti-Line Pumps we have access to a range of vertical turbine, mixed flow and propeller pumps in sizes from 6 to 57 inches with flows from less than 100 to over 35,000 gallons per minute.

The Layne history began in 1882 when Mahlon Layne drilled the first well. Then in 1903, Mr. Layne and entrepreneur P. D. Bowler joined in a manufacturing venture - and soon the Layne & Bowler vertical turbine pump became the standard of excellence in the well pump industry. In less than 10 years the Layne & Bowler company had spread from the Mississippi basin west and overseas. International Water Supply was originally Layne Canadian Co. which was part of the Layne group owned by Layne & Bowler .

The current Layne/Verti-Line brand was the result of the amalgamation of the Layne & Bowler, Verti-Line and Fairbanks Morse companies in 1994 by then-owner General Signal Corp. The product lines of the three companies were reviewed and the best pumps for a given range of hydraulic condition were selected and two product lines were established, Layne/Verti-Line and Fairbanks Morse. Pumps from either line are hydraulically identical and are manufactured in the former Fairbanks Morse plant in Kansas City, Kansas. The 400,000 square foot Kansas City Operations plant provides advanced engineering and technology, a major testing facility for product performance evaluation, and computerized machining centers for high-quality manufacturing techniques.
