The Verder Group (www.verderliquids.com), a Dutch family-owned business specializing in the manufacture and distribution of pumps and laboratory equipment, has acquired JEC Ltd. (www.jecpump.com), a Korean manufacturer of hygienic rotary lobe, centrifugal and twin-screw pumps. This acquisition will strengthen Verder’s hygienic position in the pharmaceutical and food-and-beverage market, offering a full portfolio of high end products in the most important economies worldwide.
