As global industries look ahead to 2026, SPX FLOW is reflecting on one of its most defining engineering achievements: the longevity of its solutions in the field. Customers across multiple continents continue to operate original SPX FLOW equipment that has performed reliably for 50, 60 and some more than 70 years—reinforcing the company’s reputation for durable, OEM-engineered solutions.
