SAER wastewater pumps

SAER ELETTROPOMPE S.p.A.was founded in Guastalla, Reggio Emilia, Italy in 1951 by Carlo Favella, and the company still produces all its products there.

The founder, who was responsible for grinding work in a well-known Reggio Emilia company in the 1950s, used his passion for engineering coupled with his business acumen to build up a company producing high-quality pumps for domestic and agricultural use. The green colour characteristic of SAER pumps was chosen as a reference to the agricultural sector, which was undergoing strong growth in the post-war period in the Emilia region where SAER is based.

Since SAER has always been a proponent of Italian quality with a mission to offer products with the highest standards of quality, we began a process of transformation, investing increasing amounts in sectors where high product quality is the most requested feature.

For this reason, a policy was put in place to expand the entire product range in order to cover different application types.

The product offering therefore today includes not just the previously mentioned range, now available in different metal types (no longer just cast-iron but also 316 stainless steel, bronze, carbon steel, DUPLEX etc.), but also new types of pumps to meet all requirements for clear water pumping.

Thus, around the turn of the millennium the company brought out high-pressure pumps, high-flow rate pumps (split casing), and even our obsolete models were overhauled in order to offer an increasingly efficient and complete level of service.

Today, SAER produces over 700 different types of pump in four different production plants, all in the Reggio Emilia area:

  • Headquarters, containing our R&D offices, quality control department, raw materials processing, assembly and testing rooms;
  • Technology centre, which as well as including a permanent display of SAER products and an area dedicated to training, also has a production area for components of SAER pumps and motors;
  • Submersible motors plant, with a production capacity of over 100 pieces per day split between submersible and surface motors. This plant also contains the second testing room which is able to test components up to 5000 m3/h.
  • High flow rate/head pumps: where the largest items in the SAER catalogue are machined and tested. (photo of saer headquarters+saer submersible motors).

High quality standards, totally automated production, know how, efficiency and fast delivery times make SAER the ideal partner for all pumping requirements.
