As we wave goodbye to 2024 and get ready for the opportunities that 2025 brings, the Quantex team is reflecting on the last 12 months, and all its valuable lessons, so we will continue to learn and grow between the years.
Following on from the success of 2023, our focus has been to refine and further improve our services, products and delivery to heighten our positioning as game-changers in the pump technology market. One of the ways we did this was to step back and identify some previously under-explored markets and industries. These include the beauty industry, hot beverage self-serving machines and a range of other liquid dosing applications (e.g. for the food and beverage markets, plastics and printing and household chemical industries).
Our Sales teams have seen an increase in requests for knowledge about Quantex from a wide variety of industries, and we’re proud to report that there have been enquiries for our products in the following (but not limited to) industries:
- INDUSTRIAL MANUFACTURING – Beauty Products, Perfume & Cosmetics Manufacturing and Glue & Adhesive Manufacturing
- AGRICULTURAL – Garden Care, Crop Spraying and Pesticides Management
- INDUSTRIAL CLEANING – Hospitals, Cleaning Facilities, Laundrettes and Large-Scale Cleaning Plants.
- LEISURE & BUSINESS – Hotels, Drink Wholesalers, Office Dispensers, Luxury Beverage Supplies and Boutique Hot-Desk Offices

With our head office officially moved to Duisburg, Germany; our facilities allow us to further grow and develop our production capabilities and easily explore any new range of pump solutions within a quality-assured environment. With enhanced manufacturing resources at our fingertips, we have access to a total of 380 square metres of ISO 7-certified clean room facilities, shared with other sister PSG Brands.
We are now also working with a brand new auto-assembly line which more than triples the capacity. The below video shows the QX55 Bag-In-Box pump being manufactured using state-of-the-art robotics and air pressure testing capabilities, which ensure that our pumps are consistently of the highest standard.
With product development in mind, in the summer, our R&D team (which contains some of the best engineering minds and talented scientists around), gathered together to discuss, innovate and work to further improve our technology for our customers. We’re hoping to announce the details of this discovery session in 2025, but we are very excited about the initial concepts created from it.
Following feedback that customers and industry experts value and appreciate the videos and content shared on our LinkedIn company page, our marketing team wanted to further showcase the amazing range and quality of our pumps. With that in mind, they have created some new videos to showcase exactly how strong our pumps can work with viscous solutions. Some of them are already live, but keep an eye out for the new releases soon including:
Videos coming soon - Watch this space:
- Testing how a highly viscous body cream from a household brand copes with self-priming (up 100,000cP) from the Quantex QX25-SD.
- How the Quantex Bag-In-Box pump can easily slip into a standard motor driver with controller and work with thick viscous solutions, like hair shampoo and conditioner, even in reverse cycle.
- The Quantex Recyclable Pump - QX25-SD effortlessly and accurately doses a well-known strawberry syrup with the ability to pump viscous concentrates up to 500:1
- How the QX25-SD single-use pump can mix a 2-part active solution (glue) with pumps that can be easily adjusted for accurately mixing liquids with varying flow behaviour. Using separate high vacuum capability bags, you can achieve a better bag evacuation with less waste and rapid bag changeovers - when the solution has been pumped, you simply disconnect the empty bag and swap it for a new one.
- The Quantex Bag-in-box QX160-HS recyclable pump can dispense household cleaning solutions at speed straight from a liquid pack, and with its reverse cycling function - it prevents drips for a clean dispense.
- Showcasing how the Quantex Bag-In-Box pump can easily dose thick, viscous butter icing directly onto cupcakes.
We’ve also been recognised by Food & Drink Processing & Packaging Magazine for our expert knowledge and high-quality continent, and are delighted to have been featured in multiple articles and magazine editions, including:
- Issue #54, page 12 - ‘How Quantex pumps manage the high viscosity of chocolate solutions’.
- Issue #53, page 17 - ‘Top 10 Business Benefits of Refillable Drinks and Bulk-refills’.
- Issue #50, page 16 - ‘How to dispense highly concentrated solutions to reduce your carbon footprint’.
Furthering our research for our customers, we also added some well-received and valued blogs to our website, such as ‘Adding Colourants via Liquid Dosing – How to Achieve Mess-Free Rapid Changeovers with Quantex Pumps’ along with ‘How can a Small Game-Changing Pump Revolutionise the Beauty Industry? ’and ‘Adding Flavour and Colourants to Food and Drink Produce via Liquid Dosing’.
Regarding events, in April we supported our sister company Quattroflow at INTERPHEX Global which is a leading global pharmaceutical and biotechnology event that fuses industry innovation with expert-led conferences. Set on stand 1027, PSG Biotech proudly presented their best-in-class pumps, sensors and flow meters engineered to provide reliability and protection of media integrity while producing the highest yields without compromising product quality. We’re excited to confirm that PSG Biotech will be exhibiting again in 2025 - but this time will have a more central booth position #2243.
Quattroflow expertly adapted our game-changing pump innovation for the biopharma industry, and were able to successfully launch the new QB2-SD Single-Use Precision Micropump. This pump is the first of a brand-new line of ‘QB’ pumps based on our single-use rotary pump technology.
Finally, to wrap up the year and closer align ourselves with PSG, our website has moved to https://www.psgdover.com/quantex to join forces with our sister brands such as Quattroflow, Em-tec, Malema, Hydro and many others. The new site will continue to showcase inspiring videos with downloadable files and explain the many benefits of our pumps (that we know you all love). We have set up a redirect in place for anyone visiting the old website URL, so they’ll be automatically redirected to the correct new one.
Thanks to the hard work and efforts of our talented team, 2024 has been another positive year for Quantex and we welcome 2025 with open arms and are excited for what the year brings.
