Xylem opens rental depot supporting east of England

Xylem UK has opened a new rental depot to strengthen the support it offers the water sector and industrial clients across the east of England. 

The depot in Grantham, Lincolnshire, will offer pumping, treatment and disinfection solutions, primarily serving the region supplied by Anglian Water. 

Xylem’s rental division welcomed customers and partners to the depot for an open day in September 2026. Guests explored the rental fleet available from the new facility, including: 

• Emergency and bypass pumping systems 

• Containerised disinfection systems for water treatment 

• Dissolved air flotation (DAF) technologies 

• Solutions for complex treatment needs and challenging conditions 

Xylem’s team of rental engineers were also on hand to showcase the facility’s technical expertise. 

Guy Fitzpatrick, director, water solutions and services, Xylem UK&I, said: “Thank you to everyone who joined us at our new Grantham depot, which is strengthening the support we provide our water sector and industrial customers in the east of England.  

“The open day showcased the rental equipment, technology and expertise available from the depot, providing quick access to pumping, treatment and disinfection solutions when they are needed most.” 

With strategically located depots throughout the UK and Ireland, Xylem’s rental division provides Flygt electric submersible pumps, Godwin prime-assisted diesel pumps, and Wedeco and Sanitaire treatment systems - technologies which are all manufactured by Xylem.
