The 14th edition of ASIAWATER is poised to be a landmark event in the water and wastewater management industry, taking place from 7-9 April 2026, at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC), Malaysia.
In an industry where technology moves fast but reliability is non-negotiable, DAB Pumps is celebrating a major milestone: 50 years of innovation, expansion and a commitment to making water management easier for building professionals. Founded in 1975 in the Veneto region of northern Italy, DAB began as a trading operation serving a consortium of four specialist manufacturers.
The British Pump Manufacturers Association (BPMA) is reinforcing the vital importance of ongoing skills development for all engineers, contractors, and operatives involved in the selection, installation, operation, and maintenance of pump systems across UK industry. With pumping systems playing a critical role in sectors ranging from construction and water management to energy, manufacturing, and processing, the BPMA is calling on employers to prioritise technical training as a route to improved efficiency, compliance, and sustainability.

Engineered to provide the simplest O&M of any MBR system, the TITAN MBR features compact, factoory-built and tested models that reduce field assembly, shorten installation time, and enable faster startup.
Orbia Advance Corporation S.A.B. de CV (BMV: Orbia) confirms the successful completion of its previously announced divestiture and technology licensing agreement with The Supreme Industries Ltd. (Supreme), India’s largest plastic pipe manufacturer. Under this finalized transaction, Supreme has acquired Orbia Building & Infrastructure’s (Wavin) pipes and fittings business in India for USD 30 million, plus net working capital adjustments.
A global manufacturer of scented plastic garbage bags was looking for an alternative to the use of pre-scented plastic pellets. A serendipitous encounter at a tradeshow led them to a precision gear metering pump solution that gave them accuracy and consistency at the low flow rates required, while also reducing their costs and improving worker health. Yearly savings are so high that the return on investment for the pump system can be measured in days.
Seeking an alternative for costly pre-scented plastic pellets
Effective November 1, 2025, Birgit Seeger will become CEO of NORMA Group. The Supervisory Board of NORMA Group today appointed her as the future Chair of the Management Board. As planned, the current interim CEO Mark Wilhelms will return to the Supervisory Board as of November 1.
Diffusion pump technology was developed over hundred years ago. It is still used today in many areas of research and industry to generate high and ultra-high vacuum. This is not least due to the efficient operating principle: the robust “workhorses” form hot oil vapors to transport the gas molecules out of the pump chamber and pump them out via the fore-vacuum port.
Severe-duty motors are designed to withstand the most demanding operational conditions, where extreme environments challenge equipment performance and longevity. Industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, power generation, mining, metals, pulp and paper, water and wastewater, and cement production rely on these motors for their durability and consistent performance.
SEW-EURODRIVE is proud to announce that GearOil by SEW-EURODRIVE is now available as an option with its heavy industry gear units. This synthetic lubricant, formulated and tested by SEWEURODRIVE engineers specifically for SEW-EURODRIVE gear geometries and thermal loads, is now offered as part of the factory build and service ecosystem for products such as the X.e and MC-series gear units.
The Hydraulic Institute (HI) and the Consortium for Energy Efficiency (CEE) are pleased to announce the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to formalize their collaboration in advancing energy efficiency in commercial and industrial pumping systems. The MOU was officially executed on July 9, 2025, marking a significant step toward accelerating market adoption of high-efficiency pump technologies.
