NEW HAVEN, Conn. – Global fluid management solutions provider Industrial Flow Solutions announced today the agreement to acquire Dreno Pompe, an Italian designer and manufacturer of  electrical submersible pumps for wastewater applications, based in Monselice in northeastern Italy, in the province of Padua.

This news follows the October 2021 acquisition of Scotland-based Clearwater Controls, further expanding Industrial Flow Solutions' European presence. 

Since its founding in 1990, Dreno has provided a portfolio of pumps and accessories for residential, civil, industrial, and construction applications, offering versatile and wide-ranging solutions for the home, as well as the most demanding environments. Dreno is recognized for its Compatta and GRIX product lines, for domestic and residential wastewater needs. The company recently expanded its offering with the Kappa line, a series of construction pumps for abrasive materials built with high quality components to guarantee excellent wear resistance over time. 

Emiliano Conforto and Fabiana Conforto will continue to serve in their leadership roles as operating leader and commercial and administrative Leader, respectively. Dreno’s name is unchanged and its plant facility will remain in the Veneto region of Italy. 

Respected throughout Europe, Dreno’s capabilities allow Industrial Flow Solutions to continue expanding its operational footprint and product line of problem-solving pumping and fluid-management solutions for industries that include municipal wastewater, food processing, medical, pharmaceuticals, mining, and others. The acquisition positions both companies for growth throughout Europe, North America and South America.
