Company Profile

Located in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, USA, Corken was founded in 1924 quickly gaining a reputation for excellence in customer service. In the 1940's, the company entered the liquid petroleum gas (LPG) industry, which proved to be a turning point. In the years to follow, Corken quickly gained market recognition for its line of compressors and pumps for the propane, butane and anhydrous ammonia industries. (See Timeline link to the left)

Since then that time, Corken compressors and pumps have also been used to transfer a wide range of toxic, explosive or flammable liquids and gases. In 1965, Corken designed its first D-style (dual packing) industrial compressor and in the early 80s, introduced the first petroleum industrial pump.

In 1991, Corken became part of the IDEX Corporation, a fluid handling group consisting of globally recognized market leaders. Through the years, a strong commitment to customer service, product integrity and strong dedication to technological innovation have made Corken a recognized world leader in the compressor and pump markets it serves.
