Sustainability Days’ closing session at Khalifa University to educate students on the future of
the industry.
The group’s participation in this altruistic venture further underscores its long-standing efforts
to advance sustainability, led by an exemplary corporate culture and organisational goals.
During the panel discussions, Yasser Nagi, Group Director of Wilo Middle East and North
Africa at Wilo Group, highlighted their newly revamped sustainability plan, which aligns
with all of its corporate strategies. He further discussed the diverse initiatives aimed at reducing
the company’s carbon footprint, highlighting the utilization of climate-neutral hydrogen to
power on-site electric vehicle fleets as a significant example.
Nagi said: “At Wilo, we save energy and protect the environment by utilising highly efficient
pumps and facilitating a sustainable value chain. Sustainability and social responsibility are at
the core of our organisation, through which we aim to make a lasting impact across key areas
of ‘creation’, ‘care’ and ‘connection’. Driven by this noble commitment, we actively endeavour
to nurture young minds by raising awareness of environmental challenges. As climate change
concerns rise, more and more businesses are embracing sustainability. However, these efforts
need to be supplemented by robust preparation for future challenges. By educating future
leaders of our community, embracing cutting-edge technology and pioneering efficient pump
solutions we aim to usher in a promising tomorrow.”
Fouad Ahmed, Regional Marketing Manager of Wilo, was also one of the key participants
at the event’s concluding session, during which he highlighted the company’s role as a premier
provider of pump technologies. He further discussed Wilo’s vision to deliver exceptional
solutions that bolster sustainability efforts worldwide.
Ahmed said: “By prioritising eco-friendly practices and social responsibility, we aim to lead
the transition towards a greener future. We are also actively collaborating with local
governments, industries and communities in the Middle East region to promote sustainable
practices. Our H2POWERPLANT at the Wilopark in Dortmund, Germany, epitomises the
future of green energy, and we aim to replicate the same in the Middle East, pioneering
sustainable solutions across the region”
