W.E.T. GmbH – where visionaries work on the water treatment of the future

The portrait of a more than 20-year success story from Kasendorf

Founded in 2002, W.E.T. Wasser.Energie.Technologie GmbH from the Krumme Fohre district of Kasendorf is currently celebrating its 20th anniversary on the market. When the company officially started operations with one employee in January 2003, no one could have imagined that the specialised company for water treatment by means of membrane filtration would one day become the German and Scandinavian market leader in this field. Today, a total of 220 employees work at the Upper Franconian site in a group of companies that have jointly set themselves the goal of developing environmentally friendly innovative solutions in the field of water treatment and automation technology. The core business areas are the treatment of drinking water, swimming pool water, process water and waste water.

Water treatment – a topic that the majority of the population probably only very rarely deals with consciously. This is why W.E.T. enjoys an international reputation in professional circles, but many people are not familiar with it as a company or employer in the region. The situation is quite different when it comes to the company’s projects and customers: Anyone who has jumped from the diving tower of Kulmbach’s open-air swimming pool could dive into purified, germ-free bathing water thanks to W.E.T.. In various thermal pools – for example in the Bad Steben thermal baths or in Bad Staffelstein – the specialist based here ensures the highest water quality. And part of the tap water from the Kulmbach district also comes from the W.E.T. drinking water treatment plant, which is located in the Grundmühle near Marktschorgast. Reason enough to take a closer look at the company, which is driven by vision and innovation.
