– For us, the fair is very important and a big meeting place. Not only for ourselves but also for our customers and end users. The response feels very positive, says Per Sundin, Sales Manager at Sunfab.

Strong interest in new dual flow pump
– We had more visitors in our booth than usual, says Per Sundin. Most people who visited us was the end users using our products, continues Per. Many of them were interested in our aluminium pump series SAP and the SVH 130 variable pump. There was also great interest in our new dual flow pump SCPD 70/36 DIN. Together with the By-pass valve, the SCPD 70/36 DIN is suitable for combination vehicles that require different flows and where the equipment must be manoeuvrable while driving, Per Sundin concludes.
