During a facility tour of Delta Faucet’s headquarters in Indianapolis earlier this month, Jason Gonzales, Delta’s Sr. Director, Commercial Sales, signed a contract to extend the company’s exclusive sponsorship of the Women of ASPE (WOA) for the next year, the American Society of Plumbing Engineers (ASPE) is pleased to announce. During the tour, WOA Chair Sarah Balz, PE, CPD, LEED AP, presented Jason with an appreciation plaque to recognize the company’s ongoing support of WOA, both nationally and locally.

ASPE created the Women of ASPE special-interest group in December 2015 to engage, retain, and advance women in the plumbing design industry through education, leadership development, and networking opportunities. The group is committed to bringing together women and assisting them to achieve their professional and personal goals.

Delta Faucet, a leading manufacturer of a quality, affordable range of faucets and bath products with beautiful design inspiration for both commercial and residential applications, began its partnership with WOA in July 2016 and was the exclusive sponsor of the inaugural WOA Leadership Forum held during the 2016 ASPE Convention & Exposition in Phoenix.

“Delta Faucet continues to remain a proud supporter of women in the plumbing and engineering fields,” says Gonzales. “We strongly believe in this program and value the leadership and mentoring opportunities it provides.”

“The Women of ASPE group represents a fast-growing segment of the plumbing design industry, and I am appreciative of Delta Faucet’s leadership for recognizing the benefits of advancing career opportunities for these professionals,” says Brian Henry, ASPE’s Director of Affiliate Relations.
