NETZSCH Pumps North America, LLC, provider of solutions designed specifically for difficult pumping applications, is celebrating its 50th anniversary in business. As a mid-sized, family-owned German company, NETZSCH manufactures machinery and instrumentation with worldwide production, sales and service. The global company began its North America operations as a one-person office 50 years ago, and has since grown to more than 180 employees in its three North American business units, Analyzing & Testing; Grinding & Dispersing; and Pumps & Systems.
Over the past 50 years, NETZSCH has continued to serve its initial customers in wastewater, chemical, food and paper industries, while assisting with the transition of energy production by supplying pumps for the biogas, bio refinery and battery markets. NETZSCH also has considerable expertise with pumps used for enhanced oil recovery production and water treatment, as well as sanitary pumps and drum unloading systems.
NETZSCH offers solutions to challenges posed by customers' desire to reduce water consumption. Those handling slurries, highly viscose and highly abrasive products are facing concentration increases that can be challenging for pumps and result in increased life cycle costs. "By investing in R&D at levels higher than industry standards, NETZSCH is developing new materials, products and technologies that handle the more challenging applications and reduce life cycle costs. NETZSCH products also require less energy, lowering their carbon footprint," said a company spokesperson.
"Fifty years ago, we were a very well-known and reputable machine and pump manufacturer in Germany, and then we took a leap overseas to the North American market," said Thomas Streubel, President of NETZSCH Pumps North America. "At that time, the world was not nearly as connected as it is today and it was a major endeavor to deal with the challenges of building a company on another continent. It has been a wonderful adventure and I am proud to celebrate our achievement with our entire team."
