Ahead of its Annual Meeting and Joint Conference with CEIR and Pneurop in Brussels this May, Europump president Vanni Vignoli looks at the EU’s roadmap for industrial assist.
Vanni Vignoli, president of Europump.
Following its bulletins of 5 May 2021 updating the New Industrial Strategy proposed in 2020, the European Commission has further indicated that it’s going to rely quite closely on trade to deliver on the most important challenges confronted by our economies and societies in Europe. This is particularly the case in relation to sustainability, digital transformation, and international competitiveness, in addition to the need to overcome the crisis provoked by the Covid-19 pandemic. The EU Recovery and Resilience Plan launched in Spring 2021 is essentially building on the potential of European industry to design and produce the building blocks of the twin green and digital transition. At the same time, the EU is shaping a dense regulatory framework that does not at all times support the liberty and suppleness needed for companies to develop and compete globally.
The European technology industries, and in particular our pumps, compressors, faucets and valves sectors, have for a very long time thought-about the enhancement of their world competitiveness within the challenges of societal and environmental challenges, notably by contributing to the preparation of power efficiency and ecolabel laws. In parallel, digitalisation has offered elevated alternatives and introduced new challenges, including debates on the appropriate regulatory degree (sharing of industrial information, artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, etc).
These developments, amidst ever extra fierce worldwide competition, require that public authorities and trade within the EU work increasingly more carefully to design and deploy methods that reinforce our competitiveness and our contribution to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This would be the subject of the initial debate kicking off our Joint EU Policy Conference, which is ready to deliver collectively key policy makers from the three EU policy institutions in cost of the Industrial Strategy and three Executives representing and illustrating the achievements loved, and challenges still faced, by these three key sectors of industry.
Specific Technical and Policy Issues
As the regulatory panorama throughout Europe, and indeed the entire world, turns into ever extra complicated, the burden on trade solely will increase. It due to this fact falls to sector particular commerce organisations, similar to Europump, CEIR and Pneurop, to identify and advise on those technical and coverage issues most relevant to their respective sectors. In our specific enviornment, that relates, after all, to the manufacture, distribution and use of pumps and all pump associated gear – a huge and important subset of trade, given the width and breadth of pump applications.
Against this backdrop, one of many major considerations when figuring out the core themes for the joint conference was to keep up a direct reference to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDGs). Within this focus, the three associations intend to highlight how, together with the importance for firms to handle technical elements impacting their daily enterprise operations, they consider the positive role of trade in addressing societal challenges. Indeed, all the periods could have a technical theme matching essentially the most applicable UN SDG, and with illustration from the European Commission along with technical experts from business and/or analysis institutes, they’ll every be reflective of the present legislative terrain, because it pertains to pumps and pumping systems in the following key areas:
Circular Economy & Eco-design (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 12: Responsible Consumption and Production)
Industry’s Digital Transformation and Innovation (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 9: Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure)
The restriction of use of supplies and substances of concern (Relevant UN Sustainable Development Goal no. 6: Clean Water and Sanitation)
The regulatory and legislative panorama throughout Europe is becoming increasingly complicated, and industry, in all its guises, needs to be aware and ready for what’s coming. By engaging with these commerce organisations that symbolize your greatest interests, you’ll have the ability to maintain abreast of all the compliance developments as they have an result on your small business and the areas during which you operate.
Europump’s 2022 Annual Meeting & Joint Conference will happen in Brussels on 9–11 May 2022 at the NH Collection Grand Sablon, Rue Bodenbroek – Bodenbroekstraat, 2, B-1000 Brussels, Belgium.

เกจวัดแรงดันออกซิเจน is the European Association of Pump Manufacturers. Established in 1960, it represents 16 National Associations. Europump members characterize more than 450 companies with a collective manufacturing value of greater than €10 billion and an employee base of 100 000 folks throughout Europe.
