Niagara®, the leader in high-performance, water-saving toilets, announced today it opened a new state-of-the-art global headquarters located at 300 Old Gerault Road in Flower Mound, Texas. The facility houses an expansive distribution center spanning over 117,000 square feet, geared toward serving Niagara’s U.S. customers in a more efficient and streamlined manner.
The new building also features a testing facility with advanced technology and tools that will measure the performance and features of toilets, showerheads, and other plumbing products. Innovation, design, and research have propelled Niagara’s growth and ability to win more than 20 industry and EPA WaterSense® awards in the last decade for re-engineering the toilet’s flush into a high-power, low-maintenance, virtually clog-free, water-efficient solution that has saved billions of gallons of the world’s water.
The new location includes a full product showroom that proudly displays a variety of Niagara’s award-winning products including Niagara’s Pro line and the newly-launched Phantom One Piece. The showroom is an opportunity for wholesalers, architects, builders and plumbing professionals to explore the different features and benefits of products and to also take a peek inside a Niagara tank by viewing a clear model that illustrates how Niagara’s patented Stealth Technology® works.
“Moving into this new cutting-edge facility and distribution center will ensure Niagara is best positioned to continue delivering on our unwavering commitment to creating innovative products and ensuring prompt lead times,” said Carl Wehmeyer, executive vice president at Niagara. “We are thrilled to have the expanded space and testing facility which will enable us to achieve our vision of continuing to grow Niagara’s footprint in the bathroom fixture industry.”
Niagara is immensely grateful to the skilled team of contractors from Cadence McShane who worked alongside project architect Meinhardt & Associates to design the building for TIG Real Estate Services, Inc. Cadence McShane, a leading provider of construction services in Texas, was chosen for the project due to their experience and expertise in building complex industrial facilities, working closely with TIG Real Estate Services, Inc. to ensure the project met their needs and requirements.
“The completion of the Niagara Flower Mound Warehouse is a significant milestone for Cadence McShane,” said Will Hodges, President of Cadence McShane. “We are excited for the opportunity to contribute to the growth and development of Flower Mound and we would like to thank TIG Real Estate Services for choosing us as their construction partner.”

Niagara Additionally Honored with 12 National Recognitions for Water Conserving Ingenuity This Year
Niagara®, the leader in high-performance, high-efficiency, water-saving toilets, was honored today with The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA’s) WaterSense Partner of the Year award for helping people save water.
As many Americans look to reduce water consumption through products that can help alleviate high utility bills and reduce impacts of the serious drought in portions of the U.S., Niagara continues to innovate and be nationally recognized for its high-performing, water-saving products. This is Niagara’s sixth WaterSense award and the company has received 12 awards or accolades this year that recognize the company’s ingenuity in water conservation technology and products.
In just the last few months, Niagara was recently honored with the Business Intelligence Sustainability Initiative of the Year award for its Pro line. Niagara also received the Stevie’s People’s Choice for Business-to-Business Products for the toilet product suites that it launched in 2021 that are designed specifically to save water. Two Niagara executives, Carl Wehmeyer and Holly Shadel, were honored with SEAL’s 2022 Sustainability Leader of the Year award for leadership in sustainability and environmental management, and Stevie’s Best Female Employee of the Year respectively.
“We are honored to be named the WaterSense Partner of the Year and to join such an incredible list of industry leaders,” said Wehmeyer, executive vice president at Niagara. “Our mission is to bring new technology to our customers that conserves water without sacrificing performance. This award is a huge accomplishment for our entire team and a giant step in continuing to fulfill our mission.”
WaterSense, a voluntary partnership program sponsored by the EPA, is both a label for water-efficient products, programs, and homes and a resource for helping consumers learn ways to save water. Since 2006, more than 2,100 WaterSense partners and over 40,000 models of certified water-efficient plumbing and irrigation products have helped consumers and businesses save 6.4 trillion gallons of water—enough water to supply all households in the United States with water for eight months. In addition to water savings, WaterSense has helped reduce the amount of energy needed to pump, treat, and heat water by 754 billion kilowatt hours and helped consumers save $135 billion in water and energy bills. These savings also helped prevent 288 million metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions, which is equivalent to planting 4.8 billion trees.
“Throughout 2021, our award-winning partners helped people protect this precious resource by promoting WaterSense labeled products and water-efficient behaviors,” said Veronica Blette, Chief, WaterSense Branch. “Saving water is particularly critical in areas impacted by drought, but is also a path to helping consumers stretch dollars by reducing their water and energy bills.”
WaterSense honored Niagara as a 2022 Partner of the Year for Niagara’s commitment to educating partners, architects, engineers, staff and sales teams about WaterSense benefits and products through continuing education programs, materials, online resources and product packaging. In recognition of their commitment to promoting WaterSense and water efficiency in 2021, Niagara was honored today during the WaterSmart Innovations (WSI) Conference and Exposition in Las Vegas, along with along with 33 other awardees – utilities, manufacturers, builders, retailers, and other organizations that partner with WaterSense to promote water-efficient products, homes, and programs.

For Dedication in Helping Customers and Businesses Save Water
Niagara®, the leader in high-performance, high-technology, water-saving toilets, accepted a 2021 WaterSense Excellence in Promoting WaterSense Labeled Products Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for its dedication to helping customers and businesses save water, even with the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. This is the fifth award Niagara has received from the EPA for its water efficiency efforts.
Niagara was recognized for promoting WaterSense and water efficiency throughout 2020, during the WaterSmart Innovations (WSI) Conference and Exposition in Las Vegas, along with 33 other utilities, manufacturers, builders, retailers, and other organizations that partner with WaterSense to promote water-efficient products, homes, and programs.
“We are proud to be a WaterSense partner and have valued this relationship for over a decade,” said Carl Wehmeyer, CEO of Niagara. “Since our founding, Niagara has made water conservation and education around WaterSense and water savings a top property in our product development, sales and communications efforts. Being recognized for this work is a true honor.”
WaterSense, a voluntary partnership program sponsored by EPA, is both a label for water-efficient products and homes and a resource for helping consumers learn ways to save water. Since the program started in 2006, WaterSense labeled products have helped consumers and businesses save 5.3 trillion gallons of water—enough water to supply all households in the United States with water for 200 days! In addition to water savings, WaterSense has helped reduce the amount of energy needed to heat, pump, and treat water by 603 billion kilowatt hours and save $108 billion in water and energy bills.
“In 2020, our WaterSense partners continued to make saving water possible by educating customers and businesses about WaterSense and water-efficient behaviors,” said Veronica Blette, the WaterSense program manager. “Our award winners’ creative and committed approaches to water conservation helped consumers save water, energy, and money on their utility bills at a time when they needed it most.”
WaterSense honored Niagara as a 2021 WaterSense Excellence in Promoting WaterSense Labeled Products Award winner for touting and displaying the WaterSense logo and Niagara product’s efficiency statics in advertising and marketing campaigns within key industry publications, as well as industry trade magazines. In addition, WaterSense is a key feature throughout Niagara’s social media cadences, including content about WaterSense in infographics, social posts and beyond.
In 2020, as trade shows transitioned to virtual events, Niagara made it a point to include the WaterSense logo in most, if not all collateral. In addition, to demonstrate the WaterSense label properly, Niagara incorporates the logo and information on all spec sheets, product packaging, website, educational PowerPoints, as well as training materials for the entire staff and outside sales team.
In 2021, Niagara introduced four new toilet product suites with more than 100 SKUs dedicated to the traditional wholesale channel and designed with advanced technology, high performance and water efficiency.
