Our Commitment to Sustainability

Bob Pagano Headshot

In 2025, we continued to build on the momentum that has defined Watts — delivering solutions for our customers, advancing our sustainability commitments, and investing in the people who make all our work possible. This was a year of meaningful growth and change. We achieved record safety performance at our sites and national recognition for sustainability leadership, grew career development programs that strengthen our culture, and celebrated the outstanding contributions of our entire global team.

We also achieved record financial performance and continued to execute on our growth strategy with the acquisitions of I-CON, EasyWater, Haws Corporation, Superior Boiler, and Saudi Cast. Each of these acquisitions brings complementary capabilities to our portfolio and strengthens our position as a global leader in water and safety solutions.

By continuing to consolidate our ecosystem with a full Smart & Connected product suite, we are delivering differentiated value that sets Watts apart. We continue to scale our Nexa intelligent water management platform, extending our “Digital Triple Play” of Safety and Regulation, Water Conservation, and Energy Efficiency. Nexa-enabled products are helping our customers manage water more safely and sustainably while driving measurable cost savings.

We are proud of the global recognition we received in 2025 for our sustainability efforts and workplace culture, including from Newsweek, TIME, USA Today, The Boston Globe, and Barron’s. For the seventh consecutive year, we achieved each of our operational eco-efficiency targets and have reduced our location-based emissions by 695 metric tons since 2024. Our environmental performance is driven by our robust operating system and focused efforts at key Watts sites.

As our company grows and evolves, so do the skills, competencies, and expectations of our workforce. We will continue to develop our people to lead and adapt in a changing world. In 2025, we introduced a new Leadership Framework and expanded programs focused on upskilling, early-in-career development, and Registered Apprenticeships.

Our teams exemplified the “One Watts” spirit in service to their local communities. From our headquarters’ annual backpack drive supporting the local Boys & Girls Club to water stewardship projects in Canada and partnerships with local schools to educate students about careers in advanced manufacturing and engineering, Watts employees logged 10,000 hours of volunteer time — a 100% increase over 2024.

We remain focused on advancing innovative technologies and solving our customers’ most complex challenges. As a global industry leader, Watts is poised to respond to the mega trends that will shape our world in the years ahead.

Thank you for your continued partnership. We look forward to our work together as we rethink, reimagine, and reshape the future of water.
