A Legacy of Japanese Engineering

Since its founding in 1924, Tsurumi Manufacturing Co., Ltd. has been a global leader in pumping solutions. Designed, engineered and manufactured in Japan, Tsurumi products are celebrated for reliability, durability and exceptional performance.

Over the past century, the company has expanded its reach worldwide, with Tsurumi Pumps Africa playing a pivotal role in delivering tailored equipment to industries across the continent. From resource extraction to flood control, Tsurumi’s technology addresses the demands of Africa’s most challenging environments.

Advancing Resource Extraction

Africa’s resource sector is vital to economic growth, requiring dependable solutions to manage extreme conditions. Submersible equipment from Tsurumi Pumps Africa is a trusted choice for handling water and sediment in activities where downtime must be minimized.

The LH Series, renowned for high-head capability and robust construction, is essential for applications requiring consistent water removal. Engineered with abrasion-resistant materials and advanced seals, it endures the toughest environments. Explosion-proof models, such as the KRDX and KTX Series, provide critical safety features in volatile settings like coal mines.

Complementing the LH Series, the KTZ Series is the premier solution for underground mining. Widely deployed across Africa, it is valued for its exceptional durability and performance under demanding conditions. The KTZ Series handles abrasive materials with ease, ensuring efficient groundwater and slurry control, making it indispensable for subterranean operations.

The GPN Series, designed for slurry and mud handling, excels in open-pit mining and tailings oversight. Its rugged construction ensures reliable performance even in dense mixtures of solids and liquids, addressing critical challenges in resource extraction.

In Zambia and the Democratic Republic of Congo, copper and cobalt facilities rely on Tsurumi for sediment control and groundwater handling, ensuring uninterrupted operations. Similarly, in Ghana, gold mines utilize Tsurumi’s high-volume units for tailings management, increasing productivity and minimizing delays. Tsurumi Pumps Africa’s expertise guarantees efficiency across the resource sector.

Addressing Industrial Challenges Beyond Mining

While mining remains a cornerstone of Tsurumi’s operations, its products are equally effective in other industries:

1. Infrastructure Development

Construction projects require dependable dewatering solutions to keep worksites operational. Tsurumi’s equipment is critical for excavation and tunnelling, helping contractors stay on schedule.

2. Wastewater Handling

Urbanization has intensified the need for efficient systems to manage industrial and domestic waste. Tsurumi’s sewage pumps and related tools ensure compliance with environmental standards while addressing these growing demands.

3. Flood Control

Seasonal rainfall often causes disruption and infrastructure damage. Tsurumi’s drainage pumps offer rapid deployment and high-flow capabilities, providing essential protection for communities and infrastructure.

4. Agricultural Productivity

Reliable irrigation systems are vital for food production. Tsurumi’s durable pumps deliver precise water flow, enhancing yields and supporting food security initiatives.

By diversifying its expertise, Tsurumi contributes significantly to industrial and environmental progress across Africa.

Enhancing Environmental Responsibility

Sustainability remains central to Tsurumi’s operations. Its innovative technologies promote water recycling, efficient irrigation and eco-friendly waste handling, helping clients reduce their environmental footprints while complying with stringent regulations.

In agriculture, Tsurumi’s systems deliver precise amounts of water to crops, minimizing waste and conserving resources. Similarly, wastewater pumps enable the reuse of treated liquids, addressing resource scarcity. Across all sectors, Tsurumi supports the balance between operational demands and environmental stewardship.
