Founded in 1888 as Darling Pump & Mfg., Ltd. the company manufactured Darling oil well pumps and supplies and engaged in the business of general brass founding and machining. In 1902, the company began making fire hydrants in addition to other fire protection and water-line accessories. In 1917 it was incorporated as Darling Valve and Mfg. Co. Darling hydrants were also produced in Canada by Dominion Steel and Canada Valve and Hydrant. Darling Valve was purchased by American Cast Iron Pipe Company in 1969. The company was then relocated to Birmingham, Alabama under the name of American Darling. The currently manufactured hydrants look much the same as the older Darling Valve fire hydrants.
