Nijhuis Saur Industries was founded 118 years ago in the Netherlands. The company's primary activity was repairing various equipment for the textile and dairy production industries. By 1977, Nijhuis operated in three main sectors: pumping systems, slaughterhouse industry equipment, and wastewater treatment. Over time, achievements in the wastewater treatment sector—reflected in numerous successfully executed projects, acquired technological know-how, and multiple patented technologies—led the company's management to focus entirely on this business line. Nijhuis was one of the first companies to introduce DAF (Dissolved Air Flotation) and Lamella separators into the wastewater treatment process.
Since 2022, Nijhuis Saur Industries has been represented in Georgia by VORTEX Water Engineering.
