From heating and domestic hot water to wastewater and drainage – Wilo moves water.
Innovative pumps and pumping systems are our clear expertise.
For over 150 years, we have been synonymous with engineering excellence and a spirit of innovation. In 1928, Wilo developed the world's first heating pump, and in 2001, the company revolutionized the market with the first high-efficiency pump. Today, the Wilo Group is one of the world's leading premium suppliers of pumps and pumping systems, employing around 9,000 people.
Always at the forefront is cutting-edge technology in all our pumping systems, ensuring maximum energy efficiency. We help homeowners save energy costs and live more sustainably. Because: Old uncontrolled heating pumps are the biggest energy thieves in households, but most homeowners are not aware of this since the devices work silently, secretly, and unseen in the basement. Depending on the model, heating pumps can account for up to 80 percent of the total electricity consumption. Globally, pumps used for water circulation even cause around 10 percent of the global energy consumption.
Therefore, replacing old models is a significant contribution to reducing our ecological footprint. It is no coincidence that our sustainability strategy forms the framework for the entire Wilo corporate culture and goals. Climate protection is not only an element of our business model but an integral part of our DNA.
Award-winning leader in climate protection
We rely on highly efficient pumps and a sustainable value creation model to save energy and protect the environment. At Wilo, sustainability and social responsibility are top priorities, embedded in our strategy and actions.
This is also proven by our numerous awards. For example, the internationally highly renowned rating agency EcoVadis awarded Wilo the Platinum Medal once again in 2023. Remarkable, because only one percent of the more than 100,000 companies assessed by EcoVadis each year receive this title. The latest proof of our commitment is our appointment as "Europe's Climate Leader 2024". For the appointment, the Financial Times and Statista evaluated hundreds of European companies based on their progress in reducing their CO2 emissions.
Wilo goes beyond
Naturally, we not only provide innovative solutions to private homeowners but also offer pumping systems for commercial buildings, water management, and industrial sectors. Here, there is also a growing focus on cost-effectiveness and sustainability. In the past decade, Wilo has evolved from a hidden gem to a visible and connected champion. In the industry, we position ourselves as digital pioneers with our products and solutions, processes, and business models.
