WTR Group and L&M Pumps enters into partnership to strengthen presence within industrial processes

WTR Group is pleased to announce the partnership with Lotzer & Mühlenbruch GmbH (L&M Pumps), a German manufacturer of pumps and spare parts for demanding industrial applications. The partnership brings together WTR Group’s expertise in water and wastewater solutions with L&M’s strong industrial know‑how, creating a broader platform for customers across Northern Europe.

Founded in 1987 and headquartered in Delmenhorst, L&M Pumps has more than 30 years of experience in the design and production of pumps, spare parts and seals. Beyond its home market in Germany, the company has become a global supplier of progressive cavity and slurry pumps. Its technical support spans the entire life cycle - from planning and engineering to maintenance and repair - serving paper, pulp, sugar, biogas and chemical industries as well as food and water management. An extensive inventory and a nationwide sales network ensure fast access to parts and short delivery times.

WTR Group specialises in delivering reliable and innovative solutions for the water, wastewater and industrial flow market. Its German operations have previously focused on distribution and service of pump technology and water‑handling solutions, particularly for municipal customers. By joining forces with L&M Pumps, WTR Group significantly broadens its presence in industrial process and utility sectors.

Khashayar Nikavar, CEO of WTR Group, commented:
“The partnership with L&M Pumps strengthens our position as a product, service and replacement spares provider in the water and flow industry in Northern Europe. We are delighted to partner with Ronny Lotzer and his highly skilled team. Together, we will be able to serve industrial customers with an even stronger technical platform, deep application expertise and trusted supplier relationships. We look forward to accelerating our joint growth."

Ronny Lotzer, founder of L&M Pumps, added:
“Over recent years many potential partners have knocked on our door, but WTR Group was the first to share our long‑term vision for continuing the success of our well‑known brand. WTR understands the market and client needs and is the right partner to support a generational transformation of Lotzer & Mühlenbruch into a new phase of growth. My team and I are excited about the opportunities this collaboration will create for our customers, our organisation and the group as a whole.”

The partnership between WTR Group’s and L&M Pumps represents a key milestone in WTR Group’s long‑term strategy to expand its presence in industrial applications across Northern Europe.
