OPW Engineered Systems is dedicated to solving difficult fluid-handling challenges through the development of world-class fluid-handling systems and components that have been thoughtfully designed to prevent safety hazards from occurring when loading and unloading railcars, tank trucks and immediate bulk containers.

In 1983, OPW Engineered Systems was made a business unit of OPW – which has a proven history of success and innovation since its founding in 1892 – and for the past four decades has been true to its “Engineering What’s Next” mission to create optimized fluid-handing systems. 

A four-pillar foundation supports the efforts of OPW Engineered Systems to stay ahead of the competition in the engineering of mission-critical fluid-handling products:

  • Safety – Prevent fluid-handling systems from creating a safety hazard
  • Simplicity – Simplify system installation, operation and maintenance
  • Efficiency – Increase the efficiency of all fluid-handling operations
  • Service – Quickly respond to all after-sales needs through the industry’s best customer-support system
  • Kamvalok-application-shot

    OPW fulfills its mission on a daily basis through its in-house design, engineering, machining, welding, X-ray, assembly, testing and packaging capabilities – a collection of on-site operations that no other company can offer – with all components proudly made in the USA.

    But most importantly, in every customer interaction OPW will never walk away until all expectations are met or exceeded. The result is a company that has built lasting partnerships with professional, knowledgeable, well-trained and loyal customers who rarely leave and, if they do, always come back.
