Valmet to divest its FXM pump technology to Lutz-Jesco GmbH
Valmet has sold its FXM metering pump technology (formerly Flowrox™ FXM series metering pump) to a leading provider of chemical dosing technology, Lutz-Jesco, as of May 2, 2025. The value of the transaction will not be disclosed.
The transaction includes the FXM technology design as well as the right to use ‘FXM’ in the product name. The Flowrox trademark and brand remain with Valmet.
“The FXM metering pump technology is mainly used in lighter-weight chemical dosing applications, which is a small-scale niche for our pumps business. This transaction aligns with Valmet’s strategic growth agenda in flow control by allowing focus on further strengthening our offering for core mining and metals applications,” says Vesa Lempinen, VP, Products and Solutions, Flow Control business line at Valmet.
"We are confident that the FXM technology will align perfectly with Lutz’s offering and help ensuring reliable metering performance for our existing FXM users as well as an even wider future customer base, “Lempinen concludes.
