Product Innovation and R&D
Walrus Pump is dedicated to surpassing client expectations by delivering industry-leading products. We prioritize both safety and environmental stewardship, as evidenced by our water pumps' compliance with the EU RoHS 2.0 directive and the integration of energy-efficient IE3 motors. These commitments underscore our substantial progress toward meeting international ESG standards.
63.58 million Invested in product development and verification
9 + Expanded water pump applications across major industries.
6.43 % Energy-efficient motors contribute to of our revenue.
Innovative R&D Process
Walrus Pump's success is built on a strong legacy of innovation and R&D—one of its core competitive advantages. The Company follows a rigorous product development process designed to respond directly to customer needs and pain points. Our Sales Department and front-line service teams play a critical role in identifying product development opportunities through daily customer interactions, highlighting pain points and areas for improvement. Our Research & Development teams also initiate proposals based on domestic and international pump industry trends and regulatory developments.
Once a project is initiated, R&D teams collaborate on design, prototyping, and small-batch trial production. Throughout the process, we adhere to our guiding product concept: "Stable, Quiet, and Energy-Saving." The product verification phase includes comprehensive testing of pump performance, energy efficiency, and noise levels. Small-scale trial production further optimizes performance and manufacturing efficiency before scaling up to full production, which proceeds only after review and approval.

Quality Assurance - Pump Dynamic Laboratory
In response to the Taiwanese government's 2012 update of CNS 14400 regulations—prompting greater market attention to the environmental performance of motors, particularly energy efficiency— Walrus Pump promptly established dedicated Production Technology and Product Verification Departments and set up the Pump Dynamic Laboratory. This initiative demonstrates our commitment to developing high-efficiency motors fully compatible with pump applications and to continually enhancing product performance in line with global trends and regulatory requirements. Supported by the joint efforts of supervisors from four departments and nearly NT$1 million in costs, the Pump Dynamic Laboratory has remained in continuous operation since its establishment. In 2015, it achieved a key milestone by obtaining ISO/IEC 17025 test laboratory certification from both the Taiwan Accreditation Foundation (TAF) and TÜV NORD Taiwan—certifications it continues to maintain. This makes it one of the very few laboratories in Taiwan's pump industry accredited for both pump and motor testing, underscoring our professionalism and commitment to quality.
In addition to internal product testing, the laboratory also accepts external testing commissions. In 2024, it successfully completed 790 pump tests and 49 motor tests for external clients, generating NT$7.447 million in economic benefit.
High Added-Value Through Technological Advantages
With over 50 years of R&D experience, Walrus Pump continues to expand into diverse application fields, introducing advanced materials, patented designs, and other technological innovations. Our progress builds on our core strengths: stability, quiet operation, and energy conservation. We have incorporated high-performance composite
materials (plastics) into our manufacturing processes, eliminating the pollution and excess heat associated with traditional iron parts. This shift also reduces pump casing weight by 60%–70%, easing transportation requirements. The excellent workability of these engineering plastics enables efficient injection molding without secondary processing, cutting lead times from 4–6 months to just 4–6 days. The result is lower production costs and faster delivery. In line with the growing importance of digitalization, we are integrating IoT cloud-based intelligent monitoring into our pumps. This technology enhances the water usage experience and showcases the breadth of our technological advantages.
