Xylem is an American water technology company separated from ITT in 2011 that makes the pumps, treatment systems, meters and analytics used to move, treat and measure water. Its most strategically interesting business is measurement and control: smart water meters and network monitoring that let a utility find leaks, since a substantial share of treated water is lost in distribution before reaching anyone. Headquartered in Washington and listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it acquired Evoqua in 2023 to add industrial water treatment, and its demand is driven by infrastructure renewal and water scarcity rather than by economic growth.
