KSB AG
 PROFILE
KSB AG wants to pump up its revenues. The company, one of Europe's largest pump and valve manufacturers, specializes in butterfly valves and water, chemical, and building services pumps. KSB's products are used by the water engineering, industrial, and energy industries to distribute water, heat homes, and transport corrosive and explosive liquids -- among other uses. The company also provides installation, maintenance, and inspection services. A decline in the market forced KSB to sell its submersible motors and oil extraction pumps segments. To improve sales, the company has consolidated plants in Germany and France and started marketing on the Internet.
