Wavin, a solutions provider for the building and infrastructure industry and an Orbia business, announced that it has acquired Bow Plumbing Group, a Montreal-based manufacturer of plastic pipes and fittings for the North American residential and commercial construction industry. Wavin’s investment in the Bow Plumbing Group strengthens and extends its presence in this important market to serve customers and stakeholders with efficient, end-to-end solutions for water management.
As Wavin expands its product portfolio, Bow’s reputation for excellence in plastic pipes and fittings will complement Wavin’s full spectrum of offerings for drinking water, wastewater and rainwater management. Wavin product applications range from residential plumbing systems to urban and semi-urban climate resilience and water management systems.
By combining Bow’s commercial reach and deep understanding of the North American market with Wavin’s global footprint and innovation capabilities, this acquisition will propel the Wavin business on its growth journey and drive the future of sustainable urban and residential development.
Said Sameer Bharadwaj, CEO of Orbia, “North America is experiencing increased demand for solutions that ensure urban resilience: a critical area of focus at Orbia. This investment will provide us with local presence and know-how, expanded capacity and a strong customer base for our end-to-end water management offerings that advance life around the world. We welcome Bow to the Orbia family and look forward to their contributions to our success.”
Gilles Cyr, former CEO of Bow Plumbing Group and General Manager of Wavin's new business in Canada, said, “I am delighted with this leap forward. Wavin and Bow both stand for high-quality products and customer-centricity. By now being part of Orbia we will push innovation in the North American market further together.”
