Wilo UK expands pump servicing capability 

Wilo UK has acquired Arfon Rewinds Limited in a move that further increases the company’s water management pump servicing capability.

The acquisition will enable Wilo UK to extend its service capability in key water management operations, including installation, repair, condition monitoring, and general pump maintenance.

Arfon has two workshops, one for dirty water pumps based in Bromborough and one for clean water pumps based in Caernarfon, with a team of circa 20 full-time engineers. The company is a major service and maintenance provider to industry in the North West of England and also numerous water utility companies, including Welsh Water and United Utilities. Arfon will continue to trade as a separate legal entity to support its existing customers and contracts, with Wilo UK having now purchased 100% of Arfon’s shares and assets.

Lee Tebbatt, Managing Director of Wilo UK, said the acquisition further strengthens Wilo UK’s servicing capability and aligns with an increased focus from customers on aftersales support and total cost of ownership. 

“We already have a strong trading relationship with Arfon, who is a long-standing Wilo Service Partner”, explained Lee. “The opportunity to bring Arfon fully into the Wilo family was a good fit with our strategy of providing a full range of service capabilities across the installed pump base in the water utilities and industry sectors.
