In India, Wavin is committed to investing in the growth of the industry and hiring local talent for its workforce, as well as bringing new innovations tailored to the market.

As India looks to become a global manufacturing hub and a USD 5 trillion economy by 2025, infrastructure including health and sanitation plays an integral role in achieving this. Today, there are an estimated 88 million people in India that lack access to safe drinking water and 910 million people with insufficient access to improved sanitation. The ongoing pandemic has exacerbated this situation and accelerated the need for efficient public hygiene systems, sanitization and clean and water supply, making sustainable development the need of the hour.  To empower India to build hygienic and sustainable environments and infrastructure, a critical component to economic recovery, Wavin, the world-leading water management solutions provider for the building and infrastructure industry has announced the launch of a new suite of innovative pipe and fittings solutions to mark its return to India.

With technology and innovation at its core, Wavin’s range of robust and reliable solutions including piping and fittings, indoor climate, water and gas supply pipes and rainwater management are based on a ‘Let’s build long-lasting cities’ approach that advances a healthier, better and sustainable environment built for future generations. As India walks on the path of economic recovery from the pandemic, effective tools that equip the country with clean and safe drinking water and efficient sewer infrastructure for safe and sustainable development are essential.

Wavin has a long-standing association with India of close to 60 years. Its return to India, with offices in Mumbai, Delhi and Bengaluru, and other markets in the region such as China and Indonesia marks its continued expansion in serving their infrastructural and environmental needs. In India, Wavin is committed to investing in the growth of the industry and hiring local talent for its workforce, as well as bringing new innovations tailored to the market.

“At Wavin, we are committed to facilitating clean and safe water supplies and better sanitation and hygiene which are paramount in India as it recovers from the pandemic. We continuously work towards transforming cities to be future-proof, and buildings to be comfortable, clean, safe and energy-efficient with our technology-enabled, innovative and reliable solutions that address sustainability,” said Freek Crum, President, Wavin APAC. “We look forward to collaborating with all stakeholders, from the public and private sectors to local communities to bring about positive changes in our environment.”
