Diefenbach provides engineered dewatering solutions, supporting mining projects from process evaluation through commissioning and lifecycle operation.

The company, which was founded in 1907 in Monza, Italy, boasting more than a century of engineering experience in filtration and water recovery, has been part of the McLanahan Corporation since 2023, combining European filtration expertise with global resources and support.

Diefenbach has completed more than 1 250 filter press installations worldwide since 1980, with about 80% of installed equipment still operating today.

It has a strong presence across Europe, South America, Australia, Russia and North Africa, and is expanding its African presence through selected local engineering partners for installation and site support, maintenance and the local manufacturing of selected components, which enables faster response times.

The company delivers reliable and proven European dewatering technology with practical local support.
