Commits to sustainability and environmental preservation
Grundfos recently commemorated its 75th anniversary paying tribute to its employees and partners all over the world who have helped to drive the company’s efforts in sustainability.
From humble origins and the production of its very first pump in 1945 through to today’s global workforce of 19,280 and its advanced digital solutions, Grundfos provides energy efficient pumping solutions across diverse segments including domestic, commercial buildings, industries, water utilities and pumps running on renewable energy.
“This milestone reminds us of the importance of partnership – one of our company’s core values. Without our partners, we would not be where we are today. Our partners have been and will always be part of our story,” asserted Kostas Poulopoulos Area Managing Director, Gulf, Levant and Pakistan.
Grundfos’ anniversary underscores its commitments to sustainable initiatives and its efforts in pioneering solutions to the world’s water and climate challenges while improving the quality of life for people all around the globe.
Grundfos’ commitment to sustainability is unwavering – the company is taking bold steps to be climate positive by 2025, provide water to 300 million people and save 50 billion cubic meters of freshwater by 2030. “We know that these targets are challenging, but then again nothing worthwhile is ever easy,” affirmed Poulopoulos.
“When at the end of World War II Grundfos founder, Poul Due Jensen, was asked by a local farmer if he could procure a pump, he couldn’t find anything suitable; so he had to develop a pump from scratch,” concluded Poulopoulos.
