JAKARTA, KOMPAS.com – With a rapidly growing urban population, Indonesia is currently facing one of the biggest challenges, namely access to clean and safe water. Responding to these challenges, a global company from Germany, Viessmann, expanded into the Asian region, including the Indonesian market, by launching heating products and water filters. "We have entered the Southeast Asian market since April 2021 through our softener, filter, and water heater products. We are committed to delivering future-oriented water solutions," said Managing Director of Southeast Asia and Oceania Viessmann Alexander Ziehe, Wednesday (23/2/2022).

Alexander said, as a climate solution, Viessmann also supports sustainability, with energy efficiency and security in household water use. "We are long-term committed to building local operations for research and development (R&D), production and quality assurance, expanding our portfolio by adding further solutions such as air filters, and building a network of distribution partners across the region," Alexander added.

With the rapid growth of water solutions in the Southeast Asian market, Viessmann plans to expand to other countries such as Malaysia, Brunei, Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand, and Cambodia. Viessmann's expansion in Southeast Asia also considers the development of the consumer journey, by optimizing the e-commerce platform and application connectivity.
