For the smaller models – like the very popular electrically driven B40 to B70, it has made enhancements to the production process.

A good example of this is the changes being made in its spraying process.

BBA aims to reduce its ecological impact and the generation of waste materials by replacing spraying as far as possible with a more effective powder coating process.

A clever modification to the packaging material ensures that the steel motor plate, previously used to prevent transport damage is no longer required.

BBA strives to produce the world’s best performing and environmentally friendly pump systems, according to BBA Group CEO Roland Berns.

“In many cases these changes have a positive impact on the costs,” he said.

“The recommended retail prices will be recalculated for each model. For the main models we can report some savings in cost which we will of course pass on to the end user.”
