Manufacturing
With the acquisition of Powr-Flite in 1996, Tacony broadened its portfolio by starting to manufacture commercial floor care products in Ft. Worth, Texas.
In 1997, Tacony Corporation brought production of Simplicity and Riccar vacuum cleaners from Taiwan to the United States.
As a result, Tacony is now manufacturing two new lines of vacuum cleaners at its U.S. facility in St. James, Missouri. Not only does this allow Tacony to proudly put the “Manufactured in the USA” label on its Missouri products, it enables Tacony to maintain closer control of quality issues and to be more responsive to dealer and consumer needs.
In addition to the new facility to support Riccar, Simplicity and Powr-Flite, Tacony Corporation has invested a considerable amount of resources into Research and Development. Among the resulting new capabilities are:
• High-tech paint facility
• ISO 9001 certified
• Solid modeling design using a state-of-the-art CAD system
• Prototyping of vacuum cleaners and other products
• Detailed testing of all Tacony products using ASTM standards
These new capabilities have already been utilized in the development of the two new lines of high-performance vacuum cleaners that are being manufactured at the St. James faculty.
Tacony’s commitment to new product development and existing product improvements ensures continued success and growth of its market share. It proves to customers that Tacony Corporation will continue to make significant investments in and commitments to the future of the Simplicity and Riccar lines of vacuum cleaners, plus Powr-Flite & CFR commercial cleaning equipment.
September 2008 added injection molding to Tacony's manufacturing capabilities. Mac Molding's high quality and expertise will lead the expansion of the St. James molding plants and continue to show growth out of the facility in Sunset Hills, Missouri.
