First Werner Pumps Trailer in Botswana Handed Over to Gaborone Municipality
This article has been supplied.
(Virtual Showroom) Werner Pumps has delivered an Earl 4-Cylinder Trailer Unit to the Gaborone Municipality Wastewater Department in Botswana, further strengthening its presence in Southern Africa.
The trailer, manufactured at Werner Pumps’ headquarters in Springs, South Africa, will be used by the municipality for sewer line cleaning, drain maintenance and unblocking pipelines at the wastewater treatment plant.
As part of the handover, Werner Pumps auto electrician apprentice, Zander Gresse, provided the municipality’s technical team with hands-on operational demonstrations and basic maintenance training, covering controls, safety procedures and best-practice operation.
“It was a great experience and a proud moment to represent Werner Pumps in another country,” says Gresse. “Taking the lead on the handover gave me a sense of responsibility and confidence, and it was rewarding to see how our equipment can make a real difference in improving municipal operations.”
The customer expressed satisfaction with the quality, performance and professional support provided by Werner Pumps. For Gresse, the experience offered valuable international exposure early in his career. “I learned how important clear communication and hands-on training are during a handover,” he adds. “It’s opportunities like this that help me grow both technically and personally.”
Managing Director Sebastian Werner says the Botswana handover forms part of the company’s commitment to supporting municipalities across Southern Africa with robust, locally manufactured equipment and dedicated after-sales service.
“Our focus is on building reliable, high-performance units that empower local authorities to deliver essential services efficiently,” he says. “We’re proud of young team members like Zander who carry that commitment forward with professionalism and enthusiasm.”
