Clean water
Grundfos wants to do its part in ensuring that the population growth, urbanisation and the increasing demand for greater houseing comfort and clean water do not result in the over-exploitation of natural resources.

History
Grundfos was established in 1945 by the late Poul Due Jensen. The company grew rapidly and, when Poul Due Jensen’s son, Niels Due Jensen, took over the position as Group President in 1978, the company was already an important factor on the pump market worldwide. Before his death in 1977, Poul Due Jensen changed the ownership, founding the Poul Due Jensen Foundation which today is the major holder of Grundfos stock.
