Pentair Honored for Innovative Approach by Real Leaders

Pentair has a long history of innovation that has resulted in positive impacts for people and the planet, and so it is especially gratifying to announce that Pentair has been recognized by Real Leaders with a Most Innovative Model award as part of its Top Impact Companies. The Top Impact Companies recognize a diverse group of companies from around the world that have a clear intention to scale solutions today for the world’s most pressing issues. The Most Innovative Model award is one of five new categories created to recognize companies who are tackling problems that matter and addressing them in the best way.
Driven by our Purpose, Pentair’s sustainability strategy is our business strategy to help drive long-term value for our stakeholders while we reduce our impact. We recognize the opportunity to make unique contributions through our innovation and talented employees to the global efforts to improve sustainability and equity. We take this responsibility seriously as we believe that making life better for people and the planet is essential.
We hold ourselves accountable to advancing the positive impact of our business on the world through our social responsibility strategic targets. Focused in the environmental, social and governance (ESG) areas that matter to our employees, customers, shareholders, and the community, the strategic targets advance our continued role in reducing our impact on the environment and developing solutions to address the global water and climate change challenges of the future. We report on our progress in our annual Corporate Responsibility Report and looking forward to sharing our 2023 progress this spring.
As we continue to advance, I believe we are focused on the right priorities to build a bright future. I am grateful to our employees, customers, shareholders, and Board of Directors for their continued support. Together, we have an opportunity to make life’s essential resources better — for people and the planet.
