The portfolio also includes CVA and CMA precision-modulating actuators for linear and part-turn control-valve applications, valve positioners and controllers, instrumentation valves, gearboxes, and network interfaces supporting protocols such as Modbus RTU, EtherNet/IP, Modbus TCP and PROFINET.[9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22]
Services span actuator installation, commissioning, maintenance, upgrades and emergency repair, as well as site services, testing and recertification. Rotork also offers planned reliability and lifecycle support, connected services that use equipment data to inform condition-based and predictive maintenance, and technical training in installation, commissioning, maintenance and repair. Service accounted for 24% of Group sales in 2025.[23][24][25][26][27][28][29] [29][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28]
Geographic presence
Rotork reports sales by destination across EMEA, APAC and the Americas. In FY2025, revenue was £306.3 million in EMEA (39.4% of group revenue), £253.4 million in APAC (32.6%) and £217.6 million in the Americas (28.0%), out of £777.3 million total.

Business segments
Rotork’s FY2025 operating segments were Oil & Gas, Chemical, Process & Industrial (CPI), and Water & Power. The company says these are the segments whose performance is reviewed monthly by its chief operating decision maker [31].
Oil & Gas focuses on actuator and related technology for upstream, midstream and downstream markets; CPI serves specialist chemical, process and industrial applications; and Water & Power supplies products for water, wastewater and power markets [32][33][34]. In FY2025, external revenue was £351.2m for Oil & Gas (about 45% of Group revenue), £223.4m for CPI (about 29%), and £202.7m for Water & Power (about 26%), from Group revenue of £777.3m [4]. Adjusted operating profit was £97.6m, £58.2m and £58.0m, respectively; these segment amounts total £213.8m, compared with Group adjusted operating profit of £191.5m after £22.3m of corporate expenses [4].
Rotork also reports revenue by customer end destination, a separate view rather than its operating-segment structure: EMEA contributed £306.3m (about 39% of Group revenue), APAC £253.4m (about 33%), and the Americas £217.6m (about 28%) in FY2025 [35]. [31][32][33][34][4][35]
Company history
Rotork began trading in Bath in 1957, founded by Jeremy Fry, and launched its first actuator, the 100A. The 100A Mk2 followed in 1959. Rotork Controls Ltd was listed on the London Stock Exchange in 1968.[36][37]
The company broadened its technology through the AQ quarter-turn actuator in 1985 and Pakscan actuator-control system in 1986. Its IQ intelligent actuator range launched in 1992; acquisitions of Exeeco in 1993 and Fluid Systems in 1999 extended its gearbox and fluid-power actuator businesses.[36][38]
Rotork launched the IQ3 in 2012 and acquired gearbox maker Mastergear in 2016. Kiet Huynh became CEO in 2022, the year the company introduced IQ3 SET, designed to support compatibility with earlier actuator generations. In 2023, the acquisition of Hanbay added compact miniature electric actuators to its portfolio.[36][38][39][40] [36][37][38][39][40]
