Pump Supplies announces two new strategic distribution agreements with Xylem
Pump Supplies has signed two significant strategic distribution partnership agreements with Xylem, a global leader in water technology.
The first agreement sees Pump Supplies becoming responsible for the sale of Xylem pumps to 250 UK-based Xylem customers. The partnership aims to enhance the availability and support of Xylem's high-quality pump products to a broader range of customers.
Furthermore, its recently acquired sister company, PDAS, has secured an exclusive distribution agreement for Xylem's packaged pumping station products and Adoptable Pump Station (DCG) installations. This agreement positions PDAS as the sole distributor for these pumping systems, ensuring dedicated and specialised service for these advanced pumping solutions, DCG installations, and service and maintenance contracts. PDAS will now handle all new enquiries for pumping station design and installation work, and its team of industry experts will assist Xylem in completing all existing projects.
Pump Supplies has a long history with Xylem (Flygt) having been a key distributor for over 25 years and is the largest supplier of Flygt pumps in the UK. It stocks a supply of Flygt pumps and spare parts across its depots including accessories, pipework, panels, valves and fittings.
