If you have ever worked in construction, helped with flood clean-up, or dealt with a sewer issue you may be familiar with heavy-duty, high-volume water pumps. These pumps are a helpful and necessary tool for moving water for a variety of purposes. MWI Pumps is internationally recognized for the longevity, efficiency and performance of their patented pumps even in the toughest conditions. To ensure they are delivering the best product possible, MWI reviews materials used and make changes to their product; always keeping the customer’s time and money in mind.

MWI's axial and mixed-flow pumps are made with incredibly durable materials and components to provide a very long service life. Many of these pumps are available on skids or portable trailers to allow customers to strategically place the pumps exactly when and where they are needed. In 2019, MWI Pumps learned about how hot-dip galvanizing could extend the life of these road-ready, DOT rated pump trailers. They decided to begin galvanizing their trailers rather than painting in order to provide even more value for their customer. This decision increases their unit’s longevity and aesthetic appeal due to the corrosion-resistant nature of galvanized steel. 

Galvanized trailers save time and money with less maintenance and repairs. By avoiding sandblasting and painting, galvanizing has helped MWI create a more eco-friendly and tougher product with less depreciation when in the field. No matter the environment including rural, suburban, temperate marine, or tropical marine, MWI’s industrial galvanized steel trailers will outlast painted steel every time. Through the use of galvanized trailers, MWI Pumps has considerably lowered maintenance time and cost for both the customer and manufacturer, while creating construction and rental pumps with longer lifespans. I would say, that is a win for everyone!
