Asia's largest test pond factory inaugurated

Wilo Kesurdi

India. The new super modern complex is located in the city of Kesurdi and will now operate as the main production center for water pumping systems, which will be marketed in the Middle East, Africa and Southeast Asia.

In this way, Wilo has 16 main production sites worldwide. With this strategy, the company seeks to meet the needs of regional customers with locally manufactured products.

"The expansion of our production capacity in India is in line with our global strategy called 'region by region'. In addition, we are strengthening our presence in India as an attractive employer," says Oliver Hermes, President and CEO of the Wilo Group, referring to the 1,500 new jobs generated by the opening of the plant.

Sustainability and innovation
The company has pointed out that during the construction of the new infrastructure of 94 thousand square meters, only environmentally friendly prefabricated parts were used, while energy management and water treatment systems were implemented that significantly minimize the CO2 emissions of the plant.

"We took environmental aspects into account from the beginning. Photovoltaic energy installed on the roof of the factory alone reduces CO2 emissions by 1,200 tons per year, an important step towards carbon neutrality, a goal that Wilo aims to achieve in all its facilities worldwide by 2025," explains Georg Weber, Member of the Board of Management and Chief Technology Officer of the company.

"Absolutely everything here is ultramodern: the technology, processes and products fully match Wilo's premium concept," Weber points out.

What is produced in Kesurdi?

The new facility produces some of the largest equipment in Wilo's commercial portfolio, such as vertical turbine pumps, which are up to 42 meters high. To test them, the company equipped its new plant with what is considered the largest test pond in Asia.

Vertical turbine pumps are not only used for drinking water supply, but also in agricultural projects and for flood control. "The pumping systems produced in Kesurdi contribute significantly to the secure supply of energy, water and food in visionary large-scale projects," concludes Oliver Hermes.
