Verder Group, a global leader in industrial pump solutions, has further fortified its dosing pumps range through a strategic acquisition of a majority stake in ITC, a prominent Spanish company renowned for its expertise in developing and manufacturing dosing pumps for agricultural and water treatment applications. This acquisition further strengthens Verder’s dosing pump pillar and its ability to support crucial water treatment facilities in Africa.
Water security concerns are increasingly pressing, particularly in regions like South Africa that has been grappling with water delivery challenges in major metros like Johannesburg for some time. By incorporating ITC’s cutting-edge dosing pump technology into its portfolio of innovative dosing pump solutions, Verder Liquids can play a pivotal role in supporting infrastructure upgrades through the provision of high-quality dosing pumps.
“Wastewater management stands as a critical challenge globally, encompassing various sources such as household drainage, industrial effluent, stormwater, and agricultural runoff. Despite the potential for recycling and treatment, a significant portion of wastewater (approximately 80% according to the UN) is discharged into the environment without proper remediation. This poses severe risks to freshwater sources, exacerbating contamination and jeopardising the availability of safe drinking water,” says Darryl Macdougall, Managing Director, Verder Pumps South Africa.
