Few pumps manufacturers have distinguished themselves so definitively from the rest of their contemporaries as Grundfos. The Danish manufacturer set up shop under the slightly more unwieldy moniker of Bjerringbro Die-Casting Foundry and Machine Factory in 1945, and ran through a series of names before finally settling on Grundfos in 1967. Throughout its decades of operation, Grundfos has been able to maintain its reputation as an industry leader, but how? Is it their ability to innovate? Is it the infallible quality of their products? Or is it simply the prestige their storied history lends their pumps? We are of the opinion that all of these factors – amongst many others – are helpful in explaining the esteemed status Grundfos holds today.
Innovation
To this day, Grundfos takes its commitment to pioneering new pumping technologies very seriously. The Grundfos Lifelink project is a reflection of this commitment. A plan to improve water infrastructure in the developing world, Grundfos Lifelink leverages mobile connectivity to improve reliability for both water service companies and end-users. The project has been a great success thus far and Grundfos’ foresight to integrate innovative mobile connectivity into the supply of water has been revolutionary.
Quality
The name Grundfos has always been synonymous with quality. Even some of the very first pumps Grundfos created were incredibly well-received – noted both for their durability and their efficiency. Grundfos haven’t shied away from this tradition either; they have continued to put out products of exceptional calibre year after year. As a stockist of a great many of their products, we are more than well positioned to verify this. From Grundfos home boosters to Grundfos central heating pumps, a tremendous quality permeates from every product that bares their insignia.
Corporate responsibility
Admittedly, the size of Grundfos – and the scale of the resources they have at their disposal – puts them in the unique position of being able to take their corporate responsibilities seriously. Nevertheless, they have been able to put the resources they have committed to this task to exceptionally good use. On their website, Grundfos divide this responsibility into two distinct camps – a promise to their customers and a promise to society as a whole. For their customers, Grundfos promise to continue to innovate. For society as a whole, Grundfos are dedicated to minimising their environmental footprint and seeking sustainable solutions wherever possible. This awareness of a duty that goes beyond their shareholders distinguishes Grundfos from other manufacturers in their field, and is a contributing factor in their continued success.
Aside from the rest of their attributes, quality will always be a priority for customers and it is ultimately what makes Grundfos such an undeniably huge success and one of our bestselling manufacturers. You will find an extensive range of affordably priced Grundfos pumps on our website.
