Leading chopper pump and mixer manufacturer Landia UK is celebrating its 25th anniversary in the UK since its beginnings as a two-person operation in 1994.
Since the late Hugh Vaughan and Liz Robinson first opened the doors of Landia UK in Sandford near Whitchurch, the company (headquartered in Denmark since 1933), Landia UK has seen its pumps and mixers serve a multitude of industries, especially where hard-to-handle solids in wastewater create problems for less sturdy equipment.
Since then the company has grown steadily, firmly establishing itself as a solutions provider, supplying every piece of equipment to meet customers’ specific needs, rather than off-the-shelf.
Longevity, reliability and back-up have been at the heart of Landia UK’s success - for example, the pumps from its very first installation are still in operation at Rugby Sewage Treatment Works after a quarter of a century.
In the past decade, Landia UK has been particularly successful in the AD/biogas market, where its externally-mounted GasMix digester mixing system has proved exceptionally popular with operators. Landia’s GasMix and chopper pumps are also seeing increasing uptake in the municipal/water industry, which is looking to maximise the value of its sludge via AD/biogas.
Installations already include digester mixing for Scottish Water, Severn Trent, Bellozanne Sewage Treatment Works in Jersey and Yorkshire Water.
