Located in a small town in Louisiana, The Lo-Lift Pump Company, Inc. was founded in 1892 by M. B. van Ness and a partner. The establishment was a general repair and black smith shop. Three years later, in 1895, M. B. van Ness bought out his partner, thus the year 1895 is used as the founding date for the family owned business of Lo-Lift Pump Company. Lo-Lift Pumps are manufactured in Welsh, Louisiana, just blocks from the original site. Naturally, we have expanded our line of pumps and we continue to develop new propeller and mixed flow products. Today we offer a wide selections of quality propeller and mixed flow pumps capable of pumping from 1,000 to 50,000 gallons of water per minute. Our pumps are commonly used for irrigation, flood control, water parks, and floating dry docks.
