About Watts Water Technologies INC

Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: WTS) is a U.S.-based industrial company focused on water flow management, plumbing, heating, and water quality solutions. Headquartered in North Andover, Massachusetts, United States, Watts serves residential, commercial, and industrial end markets globally, with operations and sales across the Americas, Europe, and APMEA (Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa). Its competitive positioning is rooted in mission-critical building infrastructure: products that regulate, protect, treat, and conserve water and energy in and around buildings.

Over time, Watts has built a broad portfolio of brands and technologies that allow it to sell through plumbing and heating wholesalers, OEMs, specialty distributors, and retail/DIY channels. In 2024, wholesale distributors still represented the majority of net sales, underscoring the importance of professional distribution networks to the business model.

The company also emphasizes conservation, safety, and energy-efficiency applications, which aligns well with tighter sustainability standards and growing demand for smarter building infrastructure. From a competitive standpoint, Watts benefits from a well-known brand, a wide product breadth, and global reach, while competing against specialized niche players and larger diversified industrial manufacturers across different product categories and geographies.

Watts expanded its Nexa platform by combining it with The Detection Group’s wireless leak-detection technology, strengthening its offering in connected water safety and property protection. The company also launched new performance monitors for water quality systems to improve maintenance visibility and customer alerts. In parallel, Watts has received multiple sustainability-related recognitions in 2025 and 2026, reflecting its operational focus on emissions reduction, water stewardship, and environmentally oriented product development. These developments reinforce Watts’ positioning as a quality-focused, environmentally aligned water infrastructure company listed on the NYSE in the United States.
