Grundfos celebrates 75 pioneering years
02 April 2020
It was in 1945 when Poul Due Jensen was asked by a local farmer if he could supply a pump from his small engineering workshop in Denmark; from this humble beginning, Grundfos Pumps was born.

This year the company celebrates its 75th anniversary. Mads Nipper, Group President & CEO (pictured), comments: “We celebrate the pioneering and socially responsible spirit that has driven Grundfos since the beginning and which continues to drive us today.
We carry that mindset forward, with a profound commitment to fight the imminent climate and water challenges affecting all of us. Today, we have scaled our efforts, working together with customers across the globe to reduce energy consumption and to help ensure clean water for all. Our talented and diverse global team enable us to constantly pioneer solutions that shape our entire industry and beyond.”
This is how Poul Due Jensen explains the power of collaboration, ”If you’re on your own you can do a little, but you can do a lot when you work together to do the job,” he said, crediting employees as a key element to the Group’s exponential growth.
Today, Grundfos still strives to pioneer solutions, including taking on the world’s water and climate challenges. Visit: www.grundfos.co.uk to learn more.
