In a strategic move to expand its product range, St. Anthony’s Hardware (Pvt) Ltd is set to introduce the Hydromax water pump. This new addition aims to address the existing gap in the market for affordable, high-quality and reliable water pumps.
After an extensive research period, the company’s dedicated research and development team identified a shortage in quality water pumps, prompting them to develop a solution that combines power, reliability, and affordability. 


The Hydromax water pump boasts a powerful and quiet induction motor, 100 percent copper winding, corrosion-resistant impeller, and carbon and ceramic water seals, all crafted using cutting-edge European technology. The product has undergone stringent lab testing that confirmed a 100% success rate across all functions of the water pump, providing the assurance needed for a confident product launch. Hydromax pumps have a higher head max (M) and max flow (Lts/min) than most of the established players in the market. 
With an extensive network of over 7000 dealers and distributing partners, St. Anthony’s Hardware leverages its strength to ensure the widespread availability of the Hydromax water pump. The company’s long-standing presence in the market, dating back over 80 years, has cultivated a loyal customer base that trusts the brand for quality and reliability. Highlighting their commitment to customer satisfaction, the company’s island-wide dedicated service teams will provide end consumers with peace of mind, knowing that their pumps can be serviced or repaired as needed. These teams, comprising skilled technicians, are poised to address service and maintenance requirements for the Hydromax water pump, ensuring continued functionality and performance.


Praveen Gnanam, the Managing Director of St. Anthony’s Hardware (Pvt) Ltd, expressed the company’s dedication to meeting market needs, stating, “We only introduce products to the market after extensive research and development. We identify niches that are underserviced and allocate resources towards developing the best possible product, from reputable suppliers, at affordable price points. Hydromax Water pumps are the culmination of our efforts over the years to find the best quality product that outperforms others in the market. As a company with an 80-year pedigree, we are extremely cautious that anything we introduce is best in class, and this new entrant is no exception.”
