Sharples Separator Works, also known as the Gumas Warehouse and Kauffman Warehouse, is a historic factory complex located in West Chester, Chester County, Pennsylvania. The complex was built between 1890 and 1909, and includes 14 contributing buildings. They range between one and three stories, are of brick construction, and have low pitched gable roofs or hipped roofs. It was home to the manufacturing works for the Sharples Tubular Centrifugal Separator, the first American invented cream separator.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984.
