G Stow to attend The Water Equipment Show in partnership with Wilo

We’re pleased to announce that we’ll be attending The Water Equipment Show on 14th May 2026 at the International Centre, Telford, joining forces with our long-standing partner Wilo on their stand.

The Water Equipment Show is one of the UK’s leading events for water industry professionals, bringing together specialists in clean water, wastewater, treatment, pumping, and engineering. With its strong technical focus and highly engaged audience, the show provides an ideal platform for us to showcase our capabilities and connect with customers, suppliers and industry peers.

This year, we’re pleased to be present alongside Wilo, a global leader in pump and pumping system technology. Together, we’ll be highlighting the combined strength of our expertise, from G Stow’s deep heritage in borehole engineering, drilling, maintenance and asset management, to Wilo’s advanced borehole pumping solutions and innovation in water sustainability.

Visitors to the stand will be able to: 

  • Meet members of the G Stow and Wilo teams 
  • Explore our latest projects, technologies and service offerings 
  • Discuss challenges around groundwater supply, asset resilience, and operational efficiency 
  • Learn more about how we support water companies across the UK

We look forward to connecting with colleagues from across the sector. If you’re attending the show, come and see us on the Wilo stand, we’d be delighted to welcome you!
