About Taconova
Taconova Group AG, headquartered in Zurich, has been developing, producing and distributing components and systems for building services since 1961. The product range includes hydraulic balancing and metering valves, manifold technology for surface heating, ready-to-connect apartment transfer, fresh hot water, tank charging and solar stations, valves such as mixing, zone and venting valves, as well as highly efficient circulation and recirculation pumps of the TacoFlow2 and TacoFlow3 series. Materials used include brass (CW617N/CW614N), stainless steel (1.4404, 1.4401, 1.4310, 1.4568), grey cast iron, galvanised or painted sheet steel, copper and plastics (POM, composite plastic). Production focuses on pre-assembly and series assembly of system stations; for more than 30 years Taconova has also offered OEM product development with design, laboratory, test bench and prototype construction from the group headquarters in Switzerland. Customers come from residential and commercial construction, the hotel industry, public buildings and the solar and heating sector. Production sites are located in Velešín and Boršov nad Vltavou (Czech Republic), with sales companies in Singen (Germany) and Rotherham (UK); the products are in use worldwide.
