Parker in Brazil
In 2021 Parker completed 50 years of operation in Brazil. In 1971, a small rubber seal operation in the capital of São Paulo began its activities in the country, establishing an O'ring production line. In 1977, the company already manufactured some models of connections, valves and hydraulic pumps. The purchase of Schrader Bellows made Parker a leader in the supply of pneumatic technology products during this period.
In 1987, Irlemp was acquired - a traditional company in the filtration market - contributing to the country's development. The year 2006 was another milestone in the history of Parker Brasil, when the company inaugurated the new Filtration Division factory, in the city of São José dos Campos (SP).
In 2017, the acquisition of the company Clarcor was announced, increasing the portfolio of filtration solutions. Just 2 years later, LORD Corporation is acquired with several technologies operating in different industries developing highly reliable adhesives, coatings, motion control devices and sensor technology that significantly reduce risks and improve final product performance.
In 2021, Parker opened the Parker Innovation LAB, an innovation hub in Latin America. Here we seek to align all the knowledge and structure that only Parker has with innovation projects that have the potential to transform businesses and markets.
