A Manufacturer’s Insight into Creating Safer, More Efficient Animal Care Environments


In the world of animal healthcare, plumbing often goes unnoticed. Yet, behind every successful veterinary surgical suite, grooming station, and treatment area lies a carefully engineered plumbing system. As a manufacturer of commercial faucets and fittings, T&S Brass understands how critical these components are to the performance, hygiene, and compliance of veterinary facilities.


Sanitation Starts with the Right Fixtures

Veterinary environments are demanding. From surgical prep to kennel cleaning, fixtures must endure high volumes of physical use and sanitation to maintain a safe and healthy environment.

Infection Control in Every Drop

Hands-free faucet options, including sensor, foot or knee-operated fixtures, are essential in operating rooms and surgical prep areas. Each faucet type provides distinct advantages for different applications within a veterinary facility. These aren’t luxuries, they’re necessities in veterinary patient care.

Supporting Compliance and Safety Standards

Veterinary clinics must adhere to a blend of standards from AAHA, OSHA, the USDA, and state boards. While plumbing
manufacturers aren’t writing the rules, our products help ensure compliance. By designing fittings that meet ADA, OSHA, and EPA requirements, we support facilities in maintaining a safe and functional environment.

Tailored for the Veterinary Segment

Unlike human hospitals or residential spaces, veterinary clinics serve a diverse range of animals. This calls for heavy-duty commercial grade plumbing products that provide the quality and durability required to sustain within these environments. From grooming rooms to surgical suites, plumbing must be adaptable, ergonomic, and animal-safe.

Water Efficiency and Sustainability

Veterinary clinics are increasingly focused on water conservation and energy efficiency. Manufacturers can lead the way by offering low-flow non-aerated outlet devices, metered faucets, and solutions to support water use reduction. Sustainable plumbing design doesn’t just conserve resources, it assists in reducing the overall cost of operations.


Partnering for Long-Term Success

Great outcomes come from strong partnerships. T&S Brass works with architects, designers, engineers, and veterinary professionals to ensure our solutions are not only code-compliant but tailored to the daily realities of animal care. From kennels, grooming stations, veterinary clinics and surgical rooms, boarding facilities and stables, every T&S Brass animal care product is an opportunity to enhance animal health and clinic efficiency.
