Winner of a Green Apple Environment Award, Grundfos Pumps’ pump audit tool

Grundfos Pumps has made it five years in a row for winning a highly regarded Green Apple Environment Award, run by The Green Organisation. For the 2009 awards, Grundfos entered the engineering category with its pump audit tool, which offers businesses a professional on-site check-up for pumping systems by measuring the overall efficiency of pumps in situ.
