We believe that every drop of water has the power to change the world, and we’re all about unlocking that potential. Because where others see problems, we see opportunities.
Built on a strong Foundation
Thirty years after founding Grundfos, Poul Due Jensen created the Grundfos Foundation. He transferred to it primary ownership of the Grundfos Group to ensure his company would serve the best interests of society for generations to come.
The Foundation’s main purpose is to ensure and support healthy economic growth and development of the Grundfos Group (currently maintaining 87.9% primary ownership), while also funding philanthropic work in the fields of water, research and inclusion. With separate governance bodies, this unique ownership structure allows Grundfos to maintain a high degree of independence and a long-term perspective.
