The company offers a comprehensive product portfolio that includes plumbing fixtures, washroom accessories and emergency safety products to a diverse customer base. Bradley has annual net sales of approximately $200 million.

Chief Executive Officer Robert J. Pagano Jr. commented, “We are thrilled to welcome the Bradley team to Watts. The closing of this transaction is the first step to realizing the significant value of combining two innovative businesses with over 250 years of collective industry experience. I want to thank the teams at Watts and Bradley for their efforts to get us to closing today and helping to ensure a smooth, effective transition as we integrate Bradley with Watts.”
