Wilo Nederland BV
Smart production with an eye for people and the environment
People at the center of a future-oriented factory
According to co-editor Olaf Salié, dream factories are not only production sites, but also places of pride and identity:
"They represent entrepreneurship that connects sustainability with forward-looking thinking. And this certainly applies to Wilo’s Smart Factory. The open architecture, smart technology and sustainable design place people at the center of this factory concept."
The Smart Factory in Dortmund has previously received the prestigious Factory of the Year Award and the Microsoft Intelligent Manufacturing Award (MIMA). The book Traumfabriken also features production sites from companies such as BMW, Volkswagen, Mercedes-Benz, Trumpf and Hilti.
A model for international and local innovation
Our Smart Factory demonstrates what we stand for: sustainable technology, innovative production and a strong focus on people. This is reflected in the quality, reliability and sustainability of our products. In our local branches, we also inspire employees and partners with this approach to smart and sustainable manufacturing. For our customers, this means innovative solutions that are ready for the future and contribute to their sustainability goals.
This international recognition strengthens our position as a reliable and innovative partner in the pump and water systems industry.
