There is hardly an issue more relevant than the supply of safe and secure food to a constantly growing world population. This topic literally affects everyone, every day, everywhere. And it is a touchstone for global society, the food industry, and science alike. Because from a distance, often enough, it is hard to control soil conditions or the responsible use of pesticides by local producers. This is where Verder’s know-how and support come into play: Our team adds all its expertise to produce and provide laboratory mills, which provide high degrees of homogenization. In doing so, we enable quality inspectors and laboratories worldwide to obtain reliable and meaningful analysis results from these samples, ensuring, for example, that rice is free from toxics like arsenic. That food is free from pesticides, mycotoxins and other, harmful contaminations – and thus safe to consume. 

The Covid 19 pandemic is a real stress test for pharmaceutical companies, laboratories and the entire healthcare system. At the same time, it is also an unprecedented success story in vaccine production. Never before have scientists been faster in developing their vaccines. Never before has the world witnessed a quicker expansion of global manufacturing capacity.

Verder – in the background – is a rather invisible though important contributor. Our teams worked closely with laboratories and global vaccine manufacturers to swiftly deliver the best possible pump solutions to accelerate a record fast production ramp-up. This included small peristaltic pumps for dosing at testing facilities and hygienic lobe and centrifugal pumps at the larger production sites. In case of future needs, we will be there as well, with existing or new industrial engineering solutions.

Air travel covers distances that once were almost impossible to cross. It bridges oceans and continents. It allows vacation trips that broaden horizons and bring together people from different nations. Not to mention: It is indispensable for today’s business world. But anyone boarding an aircraft wants to do so in the knowledge that the flight is secured using the best and most reliable equipment available. Verder makes an invisible but significant contribution to the best possible protection of passengers: As one of the preferred development partners of the industry, we supply cooling pumps to leading manufacturers of X-ray scanners. They value our pumping technologies for their reliability, a long service life and minimal need for maintenance. After all, no airline passenger fancies long queues at the security checkpoint on account of a malfunctioning device.

It may be the greatest human task of all time: Civilizations need to transform for the post-carbon era to battle climate change. They must do so without compromising the mobility, which has contributed to the prosperity of nations. One thing is clear today: Green hydrogen is an essential cornerstone of this project. Apart from its production, the set-up of a distribution infrastructure will also be critical to success. Good to know that Pindustry has been investing in the development and production of high-pressure technology for many years, enabling the creation of safe solutions for the fueling of cars and buses with hydrogen in time. This investment even helped to develop scalable refueling concepts, which will make it effortless, affordable, and profitable to provide small filling stations – a vital contribution to make hydrogen widely available for everyone.

To ensure climate-friendly and emission-free mobility, an increasing number of countries are deciding to say goodbye to the combustion engine. E-mobility is quickly gaining ground. However, battery technology is still in its early stages. To help it achieve a breakthrough, it is necessary to increase its range, develop recycling systems and further reduce the consumption of natural resources in production. In this exciting development process, Verder is also involved: Behind the scenes, we supply leading and proven analysis technologies, for example, which provide battery developers with indispensable information about pore sizes within the battery and thus with insights, which allow for a constant optimization of battery design. In doing so, we enable the battery producers to realize new and better concepts, which enjoy the approval of consumers.

Up to 75% of the human body consists of water. With age, the value drops to around 50% – but sufficient drinking is vital in every phase of life. Drinking water is a coveted and often scarce resource, while the world’s population is further growing. No wonder the United Nations adopted its resolution 64/292 in 2010. It declared access to clean drinking water to be a human right. Technologies from Verder are helping to turn this right into reality. For example, in around 190 countries where it is not advisable to consume untreated tap water for hygienic and health reasons. Our most accurate and sophisticated dosing pumps enable precise and safe addition of the disinfectant hypochlorite, for instance – and thus an effective combat against germs. In this way, we safeguard consistent drinking water quality in millions of households worldwide. Every day anew.
