Editor's foreword
Welcome to WWT's latest pump and valve supplement – our regular look at
the latest best practice, innovations and products that are making waves in
the world of pumps and valves. With water utilities in England and Wales
having set out their initial business plans for the 2020-25 period, there are
stretching performance targets to be met across the board, and equipment
such as pump and valves have a vital role to play. Whether it is by reducing
disruption caused by ragging (see feature, p5) or by helping to protect
supplies in a drought situation (see case study, p10) time and again it is
this essential kit and the experts who provide them that are able to step up
with the solutions. We take a tour though some of the latest products on p17. And if this has
whetted your appetite, there is plenty more to enjoy in the pumps and valves sections of our
online Supplier Hub at wwtonline.co.uk.
