IFAT in Munich is regarded as the world’s leading trade fair for environmental technologies – and this year once again confirmed its status as an international industry gathering. With around 142,000 visitors, 3,400 exhibitors from 60 countries and an exhibition area of 300,000 square metres, it provided an impressive platform for innovations in the fields of water, wastewater, recycling and sustainable urban development.

Under the motto ‘Innovations for a sustainable future – Made in Bavaria’, numerous Bavarian companies also showcased their work at the bayme vbm joint stand. The aim was to provide a strong platform, particularly for small and medium-sized enterprises, to forge contacts and tap into new markets.

In a recent technical article in *Chemical Engineering* magazine entitled ‘Robust Pumps Provide Greater Reliability’ by Joy LePree, which explores pump technology in chemical process engineering, key challenges such as aggressive media, the highest safety requirements and the desire for maximum plant availability are examined. Drawing on several interviews, including one with Alexander Hammer, Managing Director of Dickow Pumpen, the author examines how robust pump designs, seal-less magnetic drive pumps and intelligent monitoring systems contribute to greater operational reliability and predictable maintenance.

Creating Reliable Framework Conditions Instead of Trade Barriers: Dickow Pumpen in Dialogue with Member of Parliament Stephan Mayer

Business and politics in discussion on the competitiveness of mechanical engineering: Open markets instead of new barriers.

Dickow Pumpen GmbH & Co. KG discussed the implications of new trade barriers for the mechanical engineering sector with Member of Parliament Stephan Mayer (CSU). The meeting was initiated by a letter from Managing Director Alexander Hammer addressing the impact of U.S. tariffs on steel and aluminium derivatives. This was followed by an on-site visit to Waldkraiburg in early January. Discussions focused on the competitiveness of export-oriented medium-sized companies, additional tariffs and documentation requirements, as well as weakening market dynamics in European sales markets – particularly within the chemical industry.

Mission Decarbonization: How Dickow Pumpen enables the ramp-up of Sustainable Aviation Fuels

Aviation is under pressure: climate targets, rising costs, and dependence on fossil fuel supply chains demand new solutions. Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) are considered key to decarbonization – provided they can be integrated into the infrastructure safely and economically. This is precisely where Dickow Pumpen's HZM series comes in.

We are pleased to announce that Dickow Pumps has decided to become a premium sponsor of the AW Sport Academy. This partnership underscores our commitment to promoting young talent and supporting top athletic performance.
