COMPANY BACKGROUND
Victaulic

Victaulic is the world leader in grooved mechanical pipe joining systems and was founded on innovation in 1925. Known worldwide as the company where innovation and solutions “join” together, a radical new concept was introduced into the piping industry: grooved pipe ends. Developed during World War I as a way to quickly deploy fuel and water lines to Allied forces, this innovative coupling became known as the “victory joint”. After the war, as the company shifted its focus to the commercial piping industry, the name became Victaulic, which is a combination of “victory” and “hydraulics”. Nearly a century later, the ability to create innovative solutions for unique challenges still marks the Victaulic approach.
All around the world, Victaulic systems have been proven to dramatically reduce installation time, provide significant savings in total installed cost, and offer complete, start-to-finish solutions to challenging projects. Look inside many of the world’s most challenging projects, and you’ll find Victaulic solutions at work: making bold design, innovations possible, speeding time to completion, allowing for unpredictable seismic movements and setting the stage for easy scalability. For more than 80 years, Victaulic has been delivering innovative solutions for a demanding world.
Victaulic employs more than 3,500 people worldwide with its world headquarters located in Easton, Pennsylvania, USA.
