Heritage & History
Rain Bird was founded in 1933 in Glendora, California, in the San Gabriel Valley — a region of intensive citrus agriculture that provided both the market and the engineering challenge for efficient water distribution. Orton Englehart developed the first Rain Bird impact sprinkler in 1933, a rotary sprinkler design that distributed water in a circular pattern that became the standard for agricultural and landscape irrigation.
For over 90 years, Rain Bird has been innovating irrigation technology from its California base. The company pioneered drip irrigation systems in the 1970s, helping American agriculture achieve dramatic water efficiency improvements during the conservation-focused era. Today Rain Bird manufactures rotors, spray heads, valves, controllers, and drip systems for both residential and commercial applications.
Made in California
Rain Bird manufactures its irrigation products in Glendora, California, where the company has been based since 1933. The product line spans residential sprinkler systems to large-scale commercial and golf course irrigation, with controllers, sensors, and smart irrigation technology alongside traditional mechanical components.
California's chronic water challenges have made Rain Bird's efficiency-focused product development especially relevant — the company has a direct stake in helping its home state use water effectively. Nine decades of California manufacturing, nine decades of American irrigation innovation, all from the same Glendora base.
