OTT HydroMet Advances Customer Focus with Core Brands Ott and Kipp & Zonen

Veralto has introduced its Environmental Business to create a clearer, more customer-focused structure across environmental analytics. Moving forward, Ott will serve as the flagship organization for Hydro Analytics, while Kipp & Zonen will represent Weather Analytics—two focused operating companies aligned to how customers experience, deploy, and act on environmental data.

As climate variability, aging infrastructure, regulatory pressure, and demand for transparency intensify, environmental professionals require more than accurate measurements; they need confidence, continuity, and insight that translate data into decisions. This evolution centers on that customer reality, strengthening the connection between trusted measurement, connected systems, and real-world outcomes.

Ott – Hydro Analytics

Ott concentrates on environmental water monitoring and hydrology, bringing together globally trusted brands and deep domain expertise used by water professionals worldwide. Founded in 1873 and rooted in scientific precision, Ott has been synonymous with reliable water measurement for more than 150 years. Today, Ott’s purpose is clear: Ott exists to protect the world’s water resources by equipping those who manage them with trusted, decision-ready intelligence.

“By coming together as one Ott team, we’re bringing trusted product brands, complementary portfolios, and deep customer relationships under a single name – better positioned to serve our customers worldwide.”

The Ott portfolio includes brands such as In-Situ, Hydrolab, and Sutron, with solutions such as Aqua TROLL water quality sondes, Ott RLS 500 water level sensors, and STURON XLink Series of dataloggers.

Kipp & Zonen – Weather Analytics

Kipp & Zonen leads Weather Analytics with a focus on meteorology, climate, solar, and road weather measurement technologies. With roots dating back to 1866 and nearly two centuries of scientific heritage, the company is globally recognized for precision in solar radiation measurement and atmospheric sensing.

“I am especially excited to introduce Kipp & Zonen, our operating company focused on weather analytics. Across our product brands, we bring nearly 400 years of combined experience in developing technologies that solve meaningful customer challenges.”
