Profile
Makes specialized pumps, meters, valves, scientific fluidics, optics, sealing products, firefighting and rescue equipment, and colorant-dispensing and clamping systems. Revenue comes from selling engineered components and applied solutions across its operating segments, while largely autonomous businesses share an acquisition-led operating model.
Designs specialized components for niche industrial markets. Health & Science Technologies supplies precision fluidics, optics and photonics, sealing and pneumatic products, and material-processing systems. Fluid & Metering Technologies makes pumps, valves, meters and monitoring systems for industrial, water, energy and agricultural applications. Fire & Safety/Diversified Products adds firefighting and rescue equipment, colorant-dispensing systems and BAND-IT clamps.
Operates more than 50 largely autonomous businesses, using the IDEX operating model to prioritize customers, improve operations and integrate acquisitions. Pairs specialized product design and engineering with customization, timely delivery and post-sale support. Sales are divided roughly evenly between the United States and international markets, with facilities across Europe, Asia and the Americas. Growth relies partly on finding, acquiring and integrating specialized manufacturers; performance also depends on industrial demand, trade rules and access to raw materials and components.

Ownership
A 13F quarter can total more than the shares outstanding — sub-advisers file the same block twice, and a filer's own share count can be a quarter stale. No split is drawn from it.
