History

Founded in 1899 by Franz Viegener, Viega sold brass beer taps and moved into home plumbing products by 1901. In 1999 Viega started its North American operations headquartered in Wichita, Kansas with an Educational Facility in Nashua, New Hampshire opened in 2006 along with a plant in McPherson, Kansas in 2008 and Reno, Nevada in 2006. In 2016, Viega moved from Wichita to Broomfield, CO.

Innovation

In 1995 Viega presented press technology that joined copper and PEX tubing to plumbing fittings. Products like Viega's ProPress and MANABLOC define a trend to mitigate installation errors. Green or innovative buildings use Viega or other related products for radiant heating and snow melt applications. Reduction of water consumption increases the mixing of water tubing and pipe size to minimize the in process water to the user. Viega has awards from ISH 2007 and 2008 ASPE Industry Award among others. Viega builds to represent its products and innovation.
