From air and power to water: Atlas Copco’s bold strategic evolution

IN Southern Africa, where effective water management is key to mining, agriculture and infrastructure, Atlas Copco’s Power Technique business area has steadily evolved from being a leader in portable air and power solutions to becoming a significant player in portable pump solutions. Since the strategic decision to enter the pump market in 2016, which marked a pivotal point, Power Technique went on to expand its offerings to address the region’s growing need for reliable, high-performance dewatering systems.

Following the launch of its inaugural pump, the PAS range, a centrifugal pump engineered for optimal water management efficiency with capacities of up to 1,200 m³/h, Power Technique has continued to broaden its portable pump portfolio, ranging from compact models with capacities of 200 m³/h to high-capacity options exceeding 2,800 m³/h. These pumps are specifically designed to tackle a variety of dewatering and water management challenges within mining and construction operations as well as infrastructure projects.

“Engineered for optimal performance, reliability, and efficiency, our robust pumps enhance uptime, simplify installation and maintenance, reduce fuel consumption and offer extended lifecycle, all while delivering significant environmental benefits,” says Theuns Viljoen, business development manager at Atlas Copco Power Technique.

“These features have been instrumental in solidifying our strong presence in the pump space and significantly increasing our market share both locally and cross border.”
