The regional branches allow Hydroflo to take advantage of buying new and replacement parts manufactured locally, and tailored for the specific needs of their respective regions. The company also builds private label pumps for several system builders.

While the industry standard is bronze, Hydroflo produces a stainless steel impeller which is three times stronger. Additionally the company manufactures the only line of ductile iron discharge heads to go with the pump assemblies, providing greater strength and more corrosion resistance. Fresh water is the primary resource pumped by Hydroflo’s products but the company also builds pumps for salt water, oil, butane, propane and mild corrosive chemicals.

Investment casting is commonly referred to as lost-wax processing. It is a method of casting in which a wax form is encased in a heat–resistant ceramic material. The cast is then heated to melt and drain away the wax, producing a mold for molten metal to be poured. Lost-wax processing allows a wider range of materials to be used, including all stainless alloys. The process permits more intricate designs than other processes can produce due to the complexity of their form and shape and does so with lighter weights and thinner walls. For Hydroflo, lost-wax processing provides a pump impeller with a far smoother surface than traditional sand casting. Sand casting usually leaves a corrosive residue and abrasive surface even under the most careful applications. Pumps have constantly moving parts, so it is easy to visualize how the finer finish increases the life and performance of the pumps and related parts.

TACO has been in business for over 93 years and employs over 600 individuals worldwide. Manufacturing a wide range of pumps and hydronic based equipment, TACO operates factories in Rhode Island and Massachusetts, a trading company in Suzhou, China and a stainless steel foundry in Vietnam.

Strategic Market Opportunities
The market for pumps continues grow, with the increasing demand for food, mining and fuel. Wherever irrigation is possible, it is used to increase production. Moreover, hydrocarbon demand will continue to increase the need for pumps for exploration, transportation, and processing. The Company also pursues new deep set projects for mine dewatering, fire protection for off shore oil platforms, and pumps for cooling nuclear power plants. Pumps will remain an essential component for multiple industries for the foreseeable future.
