AMBLER, PA — Bradford White Corporation, a leading innovator in the manufacture of water heaters, boilers, and storage tanks, has once again been distinguished by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) with the ENERGY STAR Partner of the Year for Sustained Excellence Award. This marks the fifth year in a row that the company has been celebrated for its unwavering commitment to energy efficiency and its role in advancing the transition to a cleaner energy economy.
The ENERGY STAR program, an EPA initiative, annually acknowledges a select group of businesses and organizations that stand out for their contributions to reducing energy consumption and promoting environmental sustainability. These accolades are not just trophies on a shelf; they signify the recipients’ leadership in pushing their industries towards more sustainable practices by developing, selling, and adopting energy-efficient products and solutions.
Rebecca Owens, senior communications manager at Bradford White, expressed the company’s pride in receiving this prestigious recognition. “We’re honored to be recognized for our continuing commitment to energy efficiency and innovation,” Owens stated. She highlighted the company’s dedication to developing educational content for professionals, emphasizing that the ENERGY STAR program bolsters their efforts to provide efficient solutions to both commercial and residential consumers.
Bradford White’s achievement is particularly significant given the critical role of energy efficiency in combating climate change and reducing electricity consumption across North America. The ENERGY STAR program’s focus on recognizing organizations that lead by example in the production and promotion of energy-efficient products supports broader efforts to shift towards a clean energy economy. Over the past three decades, these efforts have culminated in savings of more than 5 trillion kilowatt-hours of electricity, underscoring the tangible impact of commitment to energy efficiency.
For industry watchers, Bradford White Corporation’s consistent recognition by the ENERGY STAR program serves as a case study in how manufacturing companies can contribute to environmental sustainability while maintaining market leadership. The award reflects the company’s ability to innovate and adapt in a landscape increasingly defined by consumer demand for green products and governmental regulations aimed at curbing energy consumption.
As businesses and consumers alike become more attuned to the importance of energy efficiency, Bradford White’s sustained excellence in this arena sets it apart as a model of how traditional manufacturing can evolve to meet the challenges of the 21st century. The company’s success story offers valuable insights into the benefits of prioritizing energy efficiency, not only as a means to achieve regulatory compliance and recognition but as a strategic business decision that can drive growth, enhance reputation, and contribute to the global effort to ensure a sustainable future.
