Iwaki America Factory Expansion – 01/01/2013Holliston Massachusetts based Iwaki America Incorporated is expanding its corporate headquarters at 5 Boynton Road in Holliston, Massachusetts by nearly 25%, taking space that had been occupied through 2012 by Terracon Corporation, a related business spun off from Iwaki America in 2008. Terracon Corporation relocated to nearby Franklin, Massachusetts. According to John Miersma, Iwaki America’s President and CEO,” Both companies are experiencing consistent year-to-year growth in sales and employment and require more space to accommodate both current activities and planned expansion. “

Iwaki America’s operations include the design, manufacture and worldwide distribution of its Walchem line of water treatment controllers and related products along with the modification and assembly of Iwaki pumps and distribution of these pumps in the Americas. Miersma adds “Iwaki America has driven organic growth with significant investments in new product and new market development coupled with a long-term commitment to leading edge technology, high quality, reliable products and superior customer service. Iwaki America’s proven ability to integrate its technologies and products in innovative ways that solve customers’ unique application needs and add value to their processes has made Iwaki America the go-to partner for the worlds’ largest water treatment and industrial companies.”

EHEDG Approval for Ampco PD Pumps – 12/27/12Ampco’s new ZP3 rotary piston pump and the new AL rotary lobe pump have recently received certification from the European Hygienic Engineering & Design Group (EHEDG). The EHEDG testing procedure involves three separate tests where the pumps are contaminated with bacteria, then cleaned-inplace, and finally swabbed to detect any bacteria remaining after cleaning. We’re happy to report that both the ZP3 and AL pumps passed with flying colors and join Ampco’s LM/LF Centrifugal pumps as EHEDG and 3-A Certified.

ZP3 pumps have also passed multiple “real world” swab tests in plant environments. In addition to superior cleanability (without the modifications required by other manufacturers ) ZP3 pumps offer ease-of-maintenance with a front-loading seal design and, of course, Ampco’s signature stainless steel gear case. Another benefit is that the ZP3 is built on the ZP2 gear case – same shafts, bearings, gears, etc. right down to the studs. This allows a painless transition for your customer when they want to upgrade their worn out Waukesha style pumps. If you haven’t yet seen a demo of the new ZP3 pump, please contact your regional sales manager.
