Bradford White Corporation, a leading manufacturer of water heaters, boilers, and storage tanks, has announced the acquisition of Universal Technologies of Wisconsin, Inc., Bock Water Heaters, Inc., and Tank Technology, Inc. Together, these businesses are known as Bock Water Heaters, a top player in the oil-fired water heating industry, and a well-regarded manufacturer of commercial and specialty water heating products based in Wisconsin.
The acquisition follows a more than 30-year relationship between the companies, with Bock serving as both a key supplier and a valued customer to Bradford White. Over time, the collaboration has evolved, making Bock’s formal inclusion in the Bradford White family a natural progression.
“We know first-hand the quality of products Bock manufactures,” said Bruce Carnevale, president and CEO of Bradford White Corporation. “Our companies share many of the same values, and we’re thrilled to welcome the Bock family into ours. This acquisition strengthens our ability to support customers with an even broader range of products and solutions.”
Founded in 1929 in Madison, Wisconsin, Bock has expanded its production with two manufacturing facilities in the state. The company is known for its high-quality oil-fired water heaters and large commercial condensing gas-fired water heaters. This acquisition will enhance Bradford White’s U.S.-based manufacturing capacity and capabilities.
