𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 – 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗮𝘀𝗶𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 Clean #water and adequate nutrition are essential for thriving human #societies. However, securing these resources presents significant challenges, especially in rapidly growing metropolises. At Wilo, we're committed to offering innovative solutions to tackle these issues head-on. 🌍 #Toshka Project, #Egypt In Egypt, our products and systems are transforming deserts into arable land. Through the Toshka project, we're using 400 high-efficiency split case pumps to irrigate around one million hectares of desert, helping Egypt secure its food supply. 🌊 #Sebou Project, #Morocco In Morocco, we're contributing to the national water plan by supplying 12 vertical turbine pumps for the Sebou and Sidi Mohamed Ben Abdellah dams. This project aims to ensure the drinking water supply for Rabat and Casablanca, addressing the structural water deficit. 🔍 According to the United Nations World Water Development Report, around 2.4 billion urban residents may face inadequate access to clean water by 2050. Through new technologies and intelligent water management systems, we can mitigate water losses and improve efficiency. Join us in our mission to create sustainable solutions for global water and food security.
