What Kedek does

Kedek (legal entity: KEDEK GmbH, registered in Bayreuth, Germany, HRB 5046) is a private B2B industrial equipment and service company founded in 2009. The firm distributes, repairs, and services machines, systems, and devices for mechanical and thermal phase separation, sewer cleaning, and environmental protection. Its core technology focus is on phase separation equipment (mechanical and thermal), sewer and canal cleaning systems, and environmental technology solutions sourced from German-speaking manufacturers.

The business model is that of a specialized regional sales and trading partner for German-speaking manufacturers seeking to enter Eastern European markets. Kedek combines one-time equipment sales (acting as a distributor/reseller for brands such as Hiller GmbH, Wiedemann enviro tec, Streicher Kanalsysteme, Siloxa AG, JT-elektronik, Buss SMS, and EKODAMAG) with ongoing professional services revenue from maintenance, repair, and after-sales support. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales with direct engagement of industrial clients and municipal entities in Eastern Europe, supported by a bilingual (German/English) corporate website. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed.

The company is founder-led, with Dipl.-Ing. Jerzy Kedziora serving as Managing Director and M.Sc. Magdalena Zeisel as a contact person. Headcount is 11–50, and the sole office is the Bayreuth headquarters at Hegelestraße 5d. No external institutional investors, parent company, subsidiaries, or acquisition history were identified in the source material, and revenue, funding, and headcount growth signals are not disclosed.

Broad incumbents

• Alfa Laval: Swedish industrial group specializing in heat transfer, separation, and fluid handling technology. Directly comparable product portfolio in mechanical and thermal phase separation for environmental and process industry applications, though primarily a global manufacturer.
• Andritz: Austrian-headquartered industrial group with separation and environmental technology divisions serving water, wastewater, and process industries. Comparable in separation/environmental scope but operates at significantly larger scale with manufacturing depth.
• GEA Group: German-headquartered manufacturer of separation, homogenization, and process technology equipment for food, dairy, chemical, and environmental applications. Strong overlap with Kedek's mechanical/thermal phase separation portfolio but operates globally and at much greater scale.
• KSB SE: German pump and valve manufacturer with strong European footprint and environmental/water applications. Comparable German Mittelstand heritage and product overlap with sewer and water infrastructure equipment Kedek distributes.
• Watts Water Technologies: US-listed manufacturer of water and plumbing products with European operations. Overlaps with Kedek's plumbing-related and water infrastructure distribution focus but is primarily a global OEM rather than a regional distributor.
• Aqseptence Group: Manufacturer of water and wastewater treatment, filtration, and screening equipment. Directly comparable product scope in municipal water infrastructure and environmental applications, though larger and more globally distributed.
• Sulzer: Swiss industrial manufacturer with significant operations in pumps and separation technology, directly overlapping with Kedek's mechanical and thermal phase separation focus. Much larger scale; operates as an OEM rather than regional distributor.
• Veolia: French-headquartered environmental services and water technology conglomerate with extensive Central and Eastern European operations. Comparable in targeting environmental infrastructure customers in Kedek's geography but operates as a global service-and-technology giant.
• Xylem: US-listed global water technology company covering pumps, treatment, and metering. Strong overlap with Kedek's sewer cleaning and water/wastewater focus, but operates as a vertically integrated global OEM.
• Wilo SE: German-headquartered pump and water technology company with overlapping product lines in water-handling and environmental technology. Comparable in German Mittelstand origin and water/environmental focus, but far larger in scale and primarily a manufacturer rather than distributor.
