Since the company was founded in 1853, its aim has been to respond to markets with products and solutions that are technologically unique and cost-effective. From then on, Bornemann set the pace. In 1934, he patented the twin-screw pump with external bearings. In the 1960s, the development of three-screw pumps and progressive pumps led to more innovative solutions, and in the 1980s Bornemann multiphase pumps created commercial opportunities that were previously unthinkable.
