Watergate and Utopi Announce Distribution Agreement
Today we’re delighted to welcome Utopi to the Watergate family as we jointly announce a distribution agreement.
Utopi is a technology platform that helps real estate owners and operators improve the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) performance of their properties.
The new agreement will see our award-winning smart water management products join the smart technology solutions already in the Utopi offering, and further strengthen Utopi’s data capabilities surrounding utility consumption.
Following a successful partnership at Greystar’s Chapter Islington property, we have now joined forces in the multi-tenant real estate sector.
“We’ve been incredibly impressed with Watergate Sonic’s performance and reliability across our pilot and it has already identified and prevented several leaks. It is revolutionising the way I manage and protect our assets and given me peace of mind. The precision of the leak detection is exceptional, capable of identifying even the smallest leaks that would typically go unnoticed until significant damage occurs.
Its automatic shut off valve sets it apart from other similar products on the market – the moment a leak is detected, the valve immediately shuts off the water supply, minimising the risk of damage. It also supports our wider ESG commitment to reducing on-site water usage and increasing water efficiency across our operations.“

“In the past, too often water was overlooked in net-zero discussions. But today more and more property owners understand how better water management delivers a triple win of lower bills, fewer CO2e emissions, and a boost to their reputation and ESG scores. Partnering with Utopi will bring those benefits to even more properties and ensure smart water management is recognised as contributing to increased overall asset values.”
