Core offering

ARBO Pompen en Filters manufactures corrosion-resistant plastic centrifugal pumps, magnetic drive pumps, seal-less immersible pumps, and filtration systems, all CNC-machined from solid blocks of high-performance thermoplastics (PP, HMPE, PVDF, PTFE). The portfolio serves chemical processing, surface treatment, aquarium/aquaculture, and industrial fluid-handling applications with custom-engineered, modular configurations and spare parts/service support.

Product overview

Arbo Pompen en Filters is a manufacturer of high-quality plastic pumps and filters, founded in 1954 in the Netherlands. The product portfolio centers on corrosion-resistant centrifugal pumps and filtration systems organized into product groups: PG 1.0 (mechanical seal centrifugal pumps in KR/TK configurations), PG 2.0 (magnetic drive MagPro pumps), PG 3.0 (seal-less immersible SumPro/DO pumps), PG 4.0 (pump protection accessories), PG 7.0 (filter chambers), and PG 10.0 (oil skimmers). The company also offers specialized Heavy Duty (HD-DO-L) pumps for critical applications and SealPro mechanical seals as sub-components. Products are machined from solid blocks of thermoplastics (PP, HMPE, PVDF, PTFE) for superior chemical resistance. The portfolio is complemented by PumpFlo selection software for system design.

The SumPro-L long-coupled variant extends the line for higher-power applications up to 5.5 kW; intended for tank-mounted chemical and surface-treatment circulation.
• PG 7.0 Filterhuizen (Filter Chambers) Corrosion-resistant plastic filter chambers machined from solid PP blocks, with capacities up to 40 m³/h and filter ratings from 0.2 to 1200 micron. Designed for accurate removal of organic or inorganic particles from corrosive liquids in chemical processing and surface treatment lines.
• PG 10.0 Olieskimmers (Oil Skimmers) Plastic oil skimmers for separating oil from water in industrial baths and process tanks, with capacities of 0-4 l/h, available lengths from 400 to 2000 mm, and a maximum operating temperature of 70 °C.
• HD-DO-L Heavy Duty Plastic Immersible Pump Heavy-duty plastic immersible pump engineered for critical process conditions with high temperatures, aggressive chemicals, and continuous 24/7 duty. Features a reinforced mechanical design with a separate bearing unit, oversized regreasable bearings, a heavy-duty pump shaft, flexible coupling, and a plastic gas seal without metal components. Capacities reach up to 300 m³/h with heads up to 80 m, with immersion lengths of approximately 700 mm.
• SealPro KR Series Mechanical Seals Single, medium-flushed rotating shaft seals for ARBO pumps, available in SSIC (sintered silicon carbide) and SSICG (SSIC with graphite) materials. Designed for improved chemical resistance against corrosive bases and etching acids, better dry-running performance, and reduced wear in lean operating conditions, with PEEK-based pressure elements.
• PumpFlo Pump Selection Software ARBO's proprietary pump selection software supporting multiple operating-point entry and variable frequency drive (VFD) curve generation for energy analysis. Used by customers and ARBO sales engineers to size and configure plastic centrifugal, magnetic drive, and immersible pumps for specific applications.

Expansion highlights5 records

Direct peers

• Iwaki Co., Ltd. Direct peer: Japanese manufacturer specializing in magnetic drive centrifugal pumps and seal-less pumps in plastics (PP, PVDF, ETFE) for aggressive chemical service. Overlaps directly with ARBO's MagPro magnetic drive line and immersible pump portfolio for chemical, semiconductor, and plating applications.
• Serfilco: Direct peer: North American manufacturer of corrosion-resistant plastic centrifugal pumps, magnetic drive pumps, and filtration systems for plating, chemical, and water treatment. Closely comparable to ARBO in materials (PP, PVDF), target verticals (electroplating, surface treatment, chemical processing), and pump + filter bundle offering.
• Bungartz: Direct peer: German specialty pump maker producing close-coupled and immersible pumps for demanding chemical, abrasive, and solids-handling applications. Comparable to ARBO's SumPro/HD-DO-L immersible lines for critical process conditions with aggressive media and continuous duty.
• Pompes Cérimes: Direct peer: French manufacturer of plastic-lined and all-plastic centrifugal pumps for corrosive chemicals, acids, and abrasive media. Comparable to ARBO in target use cases (chemical processing, surface treatment) and material set, though geographically focused on France and francophone markets.
• Richter Chemie Technik (ITT): Direct peer: Richter, part of ITT, manufactures lined and plastic centrifugal and magnetic drive pumps for corrosive chemical applications, mirroring ARBO's core product family of mechanically sealed and seal-less plastic centrifugal pumps for chemical processing, surface treatment, and chlor-alkali customers.

Broad incumbents

• KSB SE & Co. KGaA: Broad incumbent: German pump and valve manufacturer with chemical-process, industrial, and water applications overlapping ARBO's verticals. Provides standardized plastic and metal pumps at scale; competes on price, service network, and global availability rather than ARBO's solid-block machining specialization.
• Xylem: Broad incumbent: US-listed water technology major offering pumps, treatment, and metering for industrial, commercial, and utility water customers. Competes with ARBO in aquarium / aquaculture life support and industrial water handling segments through broader product breadth and digital service offerings.
• Sulzer: Broad incumbent: Swiss multinational offering a wide range of centrifugal pumps including chemical-process, magnetic drive, and corrosion-resistant configurations, competing with ARBO in chemical, water, and industrial process segments but at materially greater scale and with broader portfolio depth.
• Grundfos: Broad incumbent: Danish global pump manufacturer with strong presence in industrial, chemical, and water applications. While best known for circulator and dosing pumps, Grundfos's industrial chemical portfolio overlaps with ARBO's chemical processing and surface treatment applications at greater scale and brand recognition.
• Verder Group: Broad incumbent: Dutch-headquartered industrial pump group with a portfolio spanning peristaltic, centrifugal, magnetic drive, and specialty pumps for chemical, food, and water applications. Like ARBO, serves chemical and process customers globally; broader portfolio and substantially larger scale position Verder as a larger incumbent in adjacent product categories.
