ISH 2025: Pumps for the Building Services of Tomorrow

14.03.2025
From 17 to 21 March, the world's leading trade fair ISH will once again present the latest trends and developments in the areas of water, heat and air. Pump manufacturers will also be there again, showcasing intelligent pumps and their further development into "smart pumps". By integrating them with digital tools, they will demonstrate the possibilities of pumps for the building services of tomorrow.

In view of the ongoing tense economic and geopolitical situation, the German and European pump industry performed comparatively well: German exports of pumps + systems fell by a nominal 4 per cent in 2024. This corresponded to an export volume of 6.1 billion euros. As in previous years, the most important partner countries for German exporters were in Europe, with the largest single buyer countries being the USA, China, the Czech Republic, France and the Netherlands.

According to the VDMA-wide economic survey, the picture is divided for building services, one of the many customer sectors for Pumps + Systems. One third of respondents rate the current situation as good to very good, one third as satisfactory and one third as poor. All respondents expect business development to remain the same over the next six months.

"We assume that we will be able to achieve the previous year's sales level of almost 6 billion euros in 2025," says Christoph Singrün, Managing Director of VDMA Pumps + Systems, on the occasion of ISH 2025 confidently.
