Direct export to Latin America for decades
For over 82 years we have manufactured industrial pumps in Brazil — and for decades we have been bringing that engineering to Latin America. We serve 10 LATAM countries (Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Uruguay, Paraguay and Bolivia) with gear (FBE/FBEI) and centrifugal (FBCN/FBOT) pumps engineered for the most critical fluids.
Our team is fluent in Portuguese, English and Spanish, knows the foreign trade requirements of each country, and offers engineering adapted to each market. This is why mining, sugar-ethanol, chemical and petrochemical industries in LATAM choose FB Bombas as a long-term partner.

Local profile, grid frequency, recommended series and export logistics — the four factors that define the right specification.
Industrial profile of Santa Cruz de la Sierra
Santa Cruz de la Sierra is one of Bolivia's relevant industrial hubs, with activity concentrated in agribusiness, soybeans and gas. For this profile, pumping demand splits between process fluids and utilities — precisely the boundary between the gear and centrifugal series FB Bombas has manufactured since 1944 in Cabreúva, São Paulo.
Bolivia's grid: 50 Hz
A technical detail that changes selection in Bolivia: the local grid runs at 50 Hz, which puts 2- and 4-pole induction motors at about 2,900 and 1,450 rpm. Since FB catalog curves are tested at 1,750 rpm (60 Hz), engineering recalculates flow and head through the affinity laws before locking the model — a step that prevents off-duty pumps in export projects.
FB series for the local profile
Given the agribusiness, soybeans and gas profile, the technical starting point in Santa Cruz de la Sierra is FBCN and FBE. The FBE (external gear, API 676 compliance) covers viscous process fluids — oils, resins, derivatives — with stable flow and operation up to 350 °C; the FBCN (standardized centrifugal, ASME B73.1 compliance) handles water, utilities and light fluids.
Export and logistics
Every supply for Santa Cruz de la Sierra ships with industrial export packaging and the destination's documentation package — commercial invoice, packing list and applicable certificates. The modal is defined with the customer (road, sea or air) and Bolivia is a Mercosur member, which simplifies commercial documentation between the bloc's countries. The distance reference is ~1,779 km in a straight line from the factory.
Frequently asked questions — Santa Cruz de la Sierra
Does FB Bombas export to Santa Cruz de la Sierra?
Santa Cruz de la Sierra is within the export area served by FB Bombas from the factory in Cabreúva-SP. Every supply ships with an agreed Incoterm, industrial packaging and the destination's documentation package — and Bolivia is a Mercosur member, which simplifies commercial documentation between the bloc's countries.
Do the pumps work on Bolivia's 50 Hz grid?
They do, provided they are sized for it — which is exactly what the FB proposal does: motor selected for 50 Hz (~2,900/1,450 rpm at 2/4 poles) and curve recalculated for the local speed before the model is locked.
Is technical documentation available in Spanish?
Yes. Catalogs, series specifications and the FB Bombas website are available in Spanish and Portuguese — and the export technical proposal ships with documentation in the project language.
How does parts replacement work in Bolivia?
Replacement is factory-direct: seals, impellers, shafts and wear kits for all four series are manufactured in Cabreúva-SP and exported to Bolivia per the contract's logistics plan — a direct advantage of buying from the manufacturer.
Which series does FB recommend for agribusiness in Santa Cruz de la Sierra?
The starting point for agribusiness is FBCN and FBE — the final call comes from the real fluid, viscosity at pumping temperature, flow and circuit pressure. FB engineering sizing is free and the response specifies model, materials and sealing.
Complete systems ready for any Latin American country
We don't just export pumps. We deliver skids, mobile units and assembled systems with control panel, ready for installation. Every project is sized for the customer's actual application — regardless of destination country.
