The design of the larger B pumps (6" to 10") has been thoroughly modified, resulting in a higher pump efficiency and a larger passage for solids. For the smaller models – like the very popular electrically driven B40 to B70, we have made enhancements to the production process. A good example of which are the changes being made in our spraying process. BBA aims to reduce its ecological impact and the generation of waste materials by replacing spraying as far as possible with a more effective powder coating process.

Environmentally friendly design for the B40 to B70:

  • The pump casing will now be powder coated as standard

  • The motor keeps the factory colour of the supplier

  • All new deliveries will have hot-dip galvanized inspection covers

  • A clever modification to the packaging material ensures that the steel motor plate, previously used to prevent transport damage is no longer required

Cost savings passed on to the end user

"In many cases these changes have a positive impact on the costs", explains Roland Berns, CEO of BBA Group. "The recommended retail prices will be recalculated for each model. For the main models we can report some savings in cost which we will of course pass on to the end user."
