News From The Grundfos World 75 years of pioneering and growing together Grundfos marked its anniversary on May 12, by digitally coming together to celebrate a commitment through generations to strong values, creating a better future and making an impact by pioneering together. The pump company’s history began at the end of the Second World War when Grundfos founder and engineer Poul Due Jensen was asked by a local farmer if he could procure a pump. Then, and in the aftermath of the war, however, there was a shortage of almost everything, so he had to develop and construct a complete quality water supply from scratch. The solution proved a great success and, as history shows, the foundation of the organisation we know today. From the very rst pump in 1945 to today’s digital solutions, Grundfos has been synonymous with a pioneering spirit, social awareness and innovative solutions. The 75th anniversary will be dedicated to the shared values of the company’s 19,280 colleagues all over the world. “We celebrate the pioneering and socially responsible spirit that has driven Grundfos since the beginning and continues to drive us today.” said Mads Nipper, Group President & CEO, Grundfos.“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 results created.
