Flood Control

Low-footprint, high-volume surface-mounted and submersible Pump Station pumps.

Build resilience into your stormwater network

In stormwater planning, pumps are your last line of defense. Rapid response and resilience in the face of extreme environments is critical - whether it's your work site, farm or regional district.

Prime Fluid Management has partnered with Dutch suppliers Bosman Watermanagement and BBA Pumps to tailor flood protection technology for New Zealand's changing climate. We work with Councils, consultants and civil contractors to deliver solutions that stand up to environmental and economic scrutiny.

From fish-friendly design to increased resilience and reduced carbon footprint, our goal is to deliver better outcomes with lower impact for New Zealand communities.
