Vesconite Bearings Announces Managing Director for European Subsidiary

Europump, the European Association for Pump Manufacturers, is thrilled to announce the launch of its new and improved website. The redesigned site offers a modern and intuitive interface, providing an enhanced user experience for members, partners, associates, and other pump industry professionals.

There are times when a simple pump design and less maintenance are preferred by pump users, especially in messy dirty wastewater applications. Such was the case with one wastewater plant operator in South Africa, which was being called in every couple of weeks to remove, disassemble and clean wastewater pumps at one or other of the facilities that the company maintains.

After 50 years, Sulzer’s plant continues to deliver some of the most efficient and reliable products available to customers around the world.

Steve Schofield, CEO at the British Pump Manufacturers’ Association, considers whether there is at last a change in attitudes towards energy efficiency amongst the general public. And if so, whether this can have a meaningful impact on decreasing the energy consumption across UK industry.

Area President, EMEA (Europe, Middle East, Africa) at Valmet, has decided to continue his career outside the company. Vesa Simola will continue to be an active member of Valmet’s Executive Team and lead the company’s EMEA Area until his successor is chosen.

The internationally operating manufacturer of pump technology based in Germany is relying on experience from its own team and is assigning Sebastian Kropp (34) the sales management for the international European market as of 1st January 2023.
