How Badger Meter’s Smart Tech Is Revolutionizing Global Water Management
Badger Meter has grown into a global leader in water technology since its founding in 1905. The company specialises in durable water meters built for extreme conditions, particularly the freezing winters of the Great Lakes region. Its innovations now extend far beyond traditional metering, shaping the future of smart water management.
The firm’s early focus was on robust meters capable of withstanding harsh climates. Over time, it expanded into advanced solutions for water utilities, which face constant pressure to track flows accurately and reduce losses from leaks or measurement errors.
Today, Badger Meter operates across North America and Europe, with key locations in Milwaukee, Los Gatos, Sweden, and Austria. Its ultrasonic meters go beyond basic flow tracking, recording pressure, temperature, and other critical data. These devices rely on edge computing and IoT technology to deliver precise, real-time readings. The company’s advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) has become central to the ‘smart water’ movement. It enables continuous monitoring of water quality and system performance. Millions of cellular endpoints, connected through various wireless carriers, form an extensive IoT network that transmits data efficiently. On top of hardware, Badger Meter offers cloud-based software that gives utilities a complete overview of their networks. The platform flags unusual events, automates routine processes, and helps operators respond faster to issues like leaks or pressure drops.
Badger Meter’s solutions now underpin water management for utilities worldwide. By combining rugged hardware with IoT and cloud analytics, the company provides tools to cut waste, improve accuracy, and modernise ageing infrastructure. Its technology continues to set industry standards as demand for smarter water systems grows.
