Sundyne can trace its roots back to 1957, when the company's engineers developed the first water injection pump for the Boeing 707. In the 1960s Sundyne engineers leveraged the company's innovative high-speed gearboxes (with different impeller configurations) to make the world's first gas compressor for Union Carbide. Sundyne established Colorado as its Headquarters in 1968, and the company moved to Arvada in 1977.
Over the last 70 years, Sundyne has grown its core business segments and expanded its operations in the United States, France, the United Kingdom, Spain, Japan and India – however the majority of its manufacturing (as well as half of the company's 800 employees) work in Arvada, Colorado. More recently, Sundyne has leveraged the expertise gained from its core businesses to play key roles in the development of emerging technologies, such as:
- Electric Vehicles: Sundyne's pumps are uniquely designed to handle the harsh & aggressive chemicals that are required to coat the surfaces of the electrodes on lithium ion battery cells.
