The Wilo Group is continuing on course for growth in turbulent economic times. In spite of the ongoing European national debt crisis and a decline in the dynamism of the global economy, the Dortmund pump specialist can look back on a positive business year. The press conference to present the 2011 financial results was held on 25 April 2012 in Düsseldorf, and was conducted by Oliver Hermes, the CEO of WILO SE. He takes an optimistic view of business activities for the current year 2012.

Following 2010, the globally active Wilo Group once again succeeded in pushing sales beyond the billion mark, and breaking the prior year's record. Sales revenues in 2011 amounted to EUR 1.07 billion. "Sales revenues rose by 4.8 percent and possess a special quality, because we only suffered slight reductions during the crisis year of 2009.

The positive liquidity situation is extremely important for us in these uncertain times on the financial and capital markets, because we have big plans for the future and we want to make some major investments."
