1985
ONE THOUSAND NINE HUNDREDEIGHTY FIVE
Klarco was founded as Ki-Klarco International S.r.l., a company trading in professional kitchen fittings and plumbing components. The company was soon rewarded by results thanks to its founder, who put his 14 years of experience as Purchasing Director and Plant Manager of Zanussi Professional - leader in the professional catering equipment sector - at the service of a new and exciting entrepreneurial adventure.
2008
TWO THOUSAND AND EIGHT Despite the global economic crisis, Klarco, making a far-sighted decision, decided to invest in new technology, specifically in a galvanic nickel-chroming plant. It thus became the first manufacturer of professional faucets to adopt trivalent chrome plating, an environmentally friendly coating process that gives the metal excellent aesthetics and great resistance to corrosion.
2018
TWO THOUSAND EIGHTEEN Klarco is acquired by the US-based T&S Brass and Bronze Works. Founded on the sharing of the same values, first and foremost family management and attention to innovation, the partnership offered the company new opportunities for growth, without affecting its autonomy and leaving its territorial roots intact, as demonstrated by the fact that it continues to carry out all its managerial activities and manufacture in Pordenone.
2021
TWO THOUSAND TWENTY-ONE Klarco invests resources to improve its systems in order to guarantee its customers quality products made using advanced technological processes. 2021 is also the year in which it achieves important certifications, including ISO 9001, ISO 45001, and the DVGW HYGIENE, an essential step towards achieving DVGW product certification in 2023.
