Hydro-Vacuum S. A. is a dynamically developing leader of the pump industry in Poland and Central and Eastern Europe with many years of experience. The history of the factory dates back to 1862.
In developing the company's strategy, we are guided by the goals of sustainable development.
Our mission is to shape our business strategy around the principles of corporate social responsibility (CSR, ESG), ensuring that we provide customers with pumping equipment for various media. This not only enables the users of our products to achieve sustainable development goals, particularly in areas such as resource renewal and rational resource utilization.
We are guided by the message that true business success is one that serves people, benefits employees, and the environment.
In developing the design of new products, the company contributes to achieving many goals outlined in the UN's global sustainable development strategy, the Agenda 2030, including goals 6 and 7 aimed at ensuring access to water and sanitation for all through sustainable water resource management, as well as providing stable, sustainable, and modern energy sources at an affordable price. Developed as part of a research and development project, mini turbines allow, among other things, the recovery of energy lost in district heating networks and at discharge points for liquids (clean and polluted water). The concept was developed with the aim of increasing the availability of such devices at an affordable price. Additionally, the modernized pump designs significantly reduce the size of embedded power, while investments in photovoltaic farms ensure the factory's use of renewable energy.
