Defining Innovation Since 1919
DEFINING INNOVATION
Since 1919, when Victaulic’s first patent was filed, customers
have relied on the company’s commitment to quality and
excellence. A century later, it’s difficult to imagine a world
without Victaulic. From the world’s tallest building to its
deepest mine, the company has evolved with a fierce
determination to meet and surpass customer needs in the
fields of building services, clean water and wastewater, fire
protection, industrial construction, maritime, mining, oil,
gas and chemical, and power generation.
Over the last 100 years Victaulic has solved the toughest
challenges for its customers and set new standards
for the industry.
A New York fireboat pumped water from the Hudson
River through 1,000 ft | 305 m of 8" | DN200 of
lightweight pipe that rookie fire crews had assembled
with Victaulic couplings. In 1952, Underwriters'
Laboratories (UL) approved Victaulic's couplings
and fittings for use with fire protection systems.
