Women bring unique perspectives to our decision-making process, problem solving capabilities and overall leadership competencies. From designing innovative and IoT connected products to helping ensure our manufacturing sites are operating safely and efficiently, women engineers and scientists throughout Pentair contribute daily to our mission to deliver smart, sustainable solutions that empower our customers to make the most of life’s essential resources.

We work to encourage the empowerment of women and girls within Pentair and the greater community. The Pentair Women’s Resource Group was founded to contribute to the development and advancement of women at Pentair through a supportive and collaborative global community sharing experience and ideas. Through the Pentair Foundation, we support educational programming with a specific emphasis on STEM education as well as increasing access to educational opportunities for underserved communities in developing countries, especially for women and girls.
