For several generations, we have been driven by a passion for high-quality, robust products that meet demanding technical requirements, for providing customized solutions to our customers’ problems, and for innovations that set new benchmarks in the market.
We develop, manufacture, and distribute pumps products and pumping systems for the conveyance of “slurries”—that is, abrasive and viscous liquids, slurries, or thick fluids. Our focus is on thick-matter or slurry piston pumps, rotary lobe pumps, and other pumping-related products. We also offer service and maintenance for our machines — all around the globe.
If the fluids you’re pumping are non-homogeneous and the content-mix is most complicated you may ever find, KORTHAUS is the right partner for you to consult. Areas of application for our pumps include agriculture, biogas, wastewater, and industrial processes. Our goal is to solve your technical problem on-site—with the right pump and expert advice.
