(June 20, 2012) - NETZSCH Business Unit Pumps & Systems, a manufacturer of Progressing Cavity Pumps and Rotary Lobe Pumps, announced that the global sales milestone of Euros200 Million has been reached. While it was clear this milestone was being approached, it was uncertain exactly where this milestone would be achieved within the global network of production since manufacturing takes place in China, Germany, Brazil, India and North America. It has, however, been verified that the North American facility earned the distinction with an order placed for Anheuser Busch. The Anheuser Busch order was for several spent grain, open hopper pumps with a customized hopper and added load cells which control the pump speed depending on the level of fill. Orders for NEMO® and TORNADO® pumps for municipal projects in New Jersey and Connecticut contributed to this milestone sales number as well.

NETZSCH Pumps North America is located in Exton, Pa., with 85,000 square feet of manufacturing space. It is the North American headquarters of NETZSCH with other sales and service locations in Barrie, Canada; Odessa, Texas; and Bakersfield, California. NETZSCH Pumps North America also has 60 sales channel partners across the United States and Canada.
