Veralto

On September 14, 2022, Danaher announced its intention to separate its Environmental & Applied Solutions segment to create an independent, publicly traded company. The new company will be called Veralto and will be comprised of an outstanding collection of market-leading brands in Danaher's Environmental and Applied Solutions (EAS) segment: Hach, ChemTreat, Trojan, OTT HydroMet, and McCrometer from Danaher's Water Quality Platform and Videojet, Esko, X-Rite Pantone and Linx from the Product Identification Platform. The EAS segment generated revenue of approximately $4.8 billion in 2022 and has a global team of approximately 16,000 associates.

With a strong Danaher heritage, the Veralto team will continue to deliver trusted expertise to solve its customers' most complex workflow challenges.

Veralto will be headquartered in Waltham, Massachusetts, and intends to apply to list its common stock on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol VLTO.

In 2016, Danaher separated its industrial segment and stood up Fortive (NYSE: FTV), creating the separate public entity that has since progressed further in its industry segment and seen significant revenue growth and stock value since separation from Danaher. Danaher also separated its dental segment Envista (NYSE: NVST) in 2019, creating another separate public entity that will continue to see future value. Both companies were driven by the same strong core values and foundations provided by the Danaher Business System and Danaher's associates are pursuing a focused strategy aimed at creating a premier stand-alone Veralto company as well. The diversified Veralto company will be comprised of existing Danaher companies that are leaders in their markets, including: Hach, ChemTreat, Esko, Linx, McCrometer, Trojan, Videojet, and X-Rite.
