ACT Capital Advisors is pleased to announce that its client, The Detection Group, Inc. (“TDG”), was acquired by Watts Water Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: WTS). TDG provides FM Approved wireless leak detection products and notification services for commercial and multifamily buildings.
“We are excited to partner with Watts to build out their connected device strategy,” said Laurie Conner, TDG’s CEO. “Watts’ brand and global reach will enhance our ability to innovate and distribute products to new domestic and international customers.”
“We were interested in TDG as another offering to bundle into our overall Smart & Connected suite of products,” said Watts’ President and CEO, Robert Pagano. “Their products are addressing a key pain point for commercial and multifamily building owners, that being rising insurance costs due to water leaks. We welcome the TDG team to Watts.”
