The commercial washroom manufacturer has been a long-time supporter of S.T.E.M. education in Wisconsin
Bradley, manufacturer of commercial washroom and handwashing solutions for 100 years, supported the 2nd Annual Galentine’s Women in S.T.E.M. event, hosted by Hartford Union High School’s (HUHS) Robotics Team 1091. The February 13 event provided an interactive and inspiring platform for female students in grades 7-12 to discuss opportunities in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (S.T.E.M.).
As part of this year’s round-table discussion, attendees from HUHS, Central Middle School in Hartford, and a Hartford homeschool group participated in a fun, collaborative session decorating cookies while listening to local female engineers about their professional journeys. Among the speakers was Bradley’s Quality Engineer, Anna Kinzel, who shared her experiences, lessons learned, and advice for young women considering careers in S.T.E.M.
The speakers and HUHS Robotics team members discussed topics like finding a mentor, beneficial extracurriculars, navigating college S.T.E.M. courses, and overcoming challenges as minorities in the field. Along with the other speakers, Kinzel guided conversations about academic and career opportunities in these fields.
“I’m thrilled to have had the opportunity to participate in this event and interact with this enthusiastic group of students,” said Kinzel. “By sharing personal experiences and industry knowledge, my hope is that we were able to encourage these young women and make a positive difference. I feel privileged to have been invited.”

Last year the HUHS Team 1091 created the event to connect students with local professionals who share their interests and gain confidence in their S.T.E.M. interests and aspirations. The team plans to continue this initiative in February 2026.
“Our students thoroughly enjoyed learning first-hand from Anna as well as the other speakers about their experiences and insights on pursuing S.T.E.M. education and careers,” said Rena G. Diem, Business Mentor and Team Mom for HUHS FIRST Robotics Team 1091, HUHS. “Anna was very engaging.”
A long-time advocate for S.T.E.M. education initiatives, Bradley has been a multi-year supporter of FRC Team 1091. Through financial sponsorship and mentorship, including the guidance of longtime mentor Tim Perrin, Bradley’s support has helped cover a portion of the team’s annual competition registration fees, which gives students access to hands-on learning experiences.
“We greatly appreciate Bradley’s support monetarily and in providing inspiration to our youth,” Diem said.

In observance of National Energy Awareness Month this October, Watts has announced the launch of a six-week sustainability-inspired eLearning campaign titled Energize Your Knowledge. Running from October 1 through November 10, the campaign is designed to educate customers on environmentally conscious products and solutions that are specifically engineered to minimize environmental impact, enhance cost-efficiency, and help customers achieve their sustainability objectives.
The Energize Your Knowledge campaign features over 80 eLearning modules from the Watts family of brands, with eight courses eligible for Continuing Education credit.
Highlighted products in the campaign include anti-scale systems, which enhance water and electricity savings by eliminating unnecessary regeneration cycles, and balancing valves, which can reduce energy consumption by up to 35%. Customers will also learn about smart home management devices that adapt to user lifestyles and optimize energy usage without compromising comfort.
Other featured products include Bradley motion-detecting faucets, which conserve water and energy by only activating when necessary, the Dormont FloPro-MD, which maximizes energy efficiency during the startup and commissioning of gas appliances, and the IntelliStation 2, a precise water management solution that maintains outlet temperatures within ±2°F, offering significantly tighter control than traditional thermostatic mixing valves.
As part of this campaign, customers who complete 24 or more modules will receive a complimentary solar power bank.

Bradley Company now combines space-saving access to both tempered water and tepid water with its 2-in-1 Navigator® Thermostatic Mixing Valve. Engineered to deliver safe water temperatures to both commercial faucet applications as well as emergency safety eyewash fixtures, this model provides a complete and efficient single mixing valve solution.
With its innovative combination of two valves in one, the Navigator TMV saves on installation time and conserves space under sinks. During regular faucet use, the TMV delivers tempered water for uses such as handwashing; in an emergency, the valve delivers tepid water to the emergency safety eyewash to meet the ANSI/ISEA Z358.1 standard for the required 15-minute flush.
The Navigator TMV is ASSE 1070 and 1071 Certified, and includes a 3/8″ compression fitting to faucet. A reliable liquid-filled thermostat ensures safe water temperature to the eyewash, and a separate wax filled thermostat delivers safe water temperature to the faucet.
With its built-in safety features, the cold water bypass on the eyewash assures cold flow if hot water fails. Navigator TMV also offers anti-scald protection with positive shutoff of hot supply when cold supply is lost.
Designed for reliable precision, Navigator TMVs deliver accurate temperature control to within ± 3° and features an adjustable set point within temperature range.
Ready for easy direct mounting to walls, all materials are 100% factory assembled and tested.
Bradley Halo Eyewash Solutions
Pair Bradley’s 2-in-1 Navigator TMV with Bradley’s industry leading eyewash solutions. Halo™ eye and eye/face wash arms users with the most effective emergency relief available. Halo provides 20 percent better protection than any model on the market. With a more uniform and complete spray pattern, and exclusive features that increase hygiene, users attain the greatest contaminant relief and protection available.
Further optimize space in your workspace or laboratory with Bradley’s new combined Halo™ Swing-Activated Faucet and Emergency Eyewash. This dual design features a gooseneck faucet for regular use, such as handwashing, and a built-in emergency eyewash featuring Halo technology.
Whichever eyewash or faucet model you choose, Bradley is the only manufacturer that can provide a single valve to provide both tepid water and tempered water to faucet/eyewash applications. All other manufacturers require two different valves for the application, which costs more money, time, and space under the sink for these types of applications.
