Within the scope of an AiF-managed project entitled HydroKavtec, the microbiological cleaning performance of a hydrodynamic cavitation systemdeveloped by Steinhardt GmbH will be researched and evaluated at the Technologiezentrum Wasser (TWZ) in Karlsruhe.
The background facts: In human medicine around 700 to 800 tonnes of antibiotics are consumed annually in Germany and in veterinary medicine the figure is even twice as high. The result is an increasing number of resistant bacteria that are released into the environment.
For over 20 years, MevaPol has been the exclusive distributor of Steinhardt products in Poland. The fruitful cooperation with Steinhardt GmbH continues, too, following the recent generational change at MevaPol. Krystina Taylor, the previous owner of Mevapol, has sold her shares and handed over the company’s business to her son-in-law, Pawel Meissner, who is the new managing partner. The family business is now in its 2nd generation.
Mr. Meissner has been successfully active in IT development in internationally operating companies and so contributes extensive know-how in the areas of telecontrol and control technology.

After days of rainfall in the Nong Yai district of the Thai province of Chonburi, the newly installed HydroSlide V‑type flow regulator was able to prove its reliability.
The orifice plate of the VN-type discharge controller, which has been installed in a new stormwater overflow basin, is moved vertically in front of the passage opening by means of a float mechanism. In this way, it regulates the flow automatically and without external energy to the set maximum flow rate.
The VDI’s Entrepreneur Forum held on 3rd March in Taunusstein demonstrated that valuable expertise and insight is very much present on a regional level. Wolfgang Truss, Dipl.-Ing. and Director of the VDI Rheingau Regional Branch, is responsible for the organisation of the forum series. Steinhardt GmbH hosted the well-attended meeting during which guest companies gained not just an insight into Steinhardt’s product diversity but were also shown key factors leading to the success of the internationally active medium-sized business.
It was Steinhardt GmbH’s first appearance as a member of the internationally active ABIONIK Group in Chicago at the WEFTEC 2019, North America’s most important conference and exhibition for specialists involved in all aspects of water quality. A major goal was to intensify access to the American market. And a key factor here is the placement of innovative products such as HydroSpin Floatables Removal, adapted by Steinhardt GmbH for the North American market and distributed there in exclusive co-operation with partner GNA (Gabriel Novac & Associates Ltd.). HydroSpin components are easily modifiable to the local environment and operation is practically maintenance-free – two of the factors contributing to the product’s success – alone in Japan with 1,600 installations.
For the last ten years, we have been consolidating Steinhardt’s position on the field of national and international competition. Existing products have undergone fine-tuning and new product ranges for flood protection and process water technology have been established.
