The world's largest pump maker is going full throttle on making its global plans a reality; will look at manufacturing in India in future
Access to clean drinking water is not a problem confined to under-developed countries alone. Several developed countries too are frequently concerned about the quality of water. One company that has made it its mission to ensure that millions have access to potable water is Grundfos. The Bjerringbro-based company has worked hard to create solutions in pumping and has come up with innovative solutions that could help countries and utility companies solve water problems.
THE POINT IS TO INCREASE SALES IN THE EXISTING MARKETS WE OPERATE IN, INSTEAD OF LOOKING TO DEVELOP NEW ONES.
At Grundfos’ Chennai office, Ranganath NK, the MD, says that the company looks at few areas in work and sustainability is one of them. “Whatever we do, we also consider the impact of our actions. In fact, we are, perhaps, the only company to work out the intricacies of making an entire product by ourselves. We even write the software for our products and it is all integrated into one,” he adds. Although the goal is to provide clean water and also save on resources, pumps form an integral part of this decision. The drive to achieve sustainability has even flowed into its corporate building where it gone beyond the scope of work of LEED EB Platinum Certification it received in 2013.
Grundfos pumps are utilised at the national water company that supplies water to Copenhagen.
