TECO was founded in 1988 by Ezio Turci, Bruno Turci, and Stelio Bubani, combining family refrigeration experience with industrial capability. Its history reaches back to earlier Turci work in commercial cooling, but 1988 identifies the creation of TECO itself. The company is based in Fornace Zarattini, Ravenna, and transferred that expertise into controlling water temperature for specialist applications.

In aquatics it is known for chillers using corrosion-resistant heat exchangers, digital control, and configurations for freshwater and marine systems. The range also includes integrated heating and versions scaled for different water volumes. The same thermal engineering serves hydroponics, foodservice, shellfish holding, and cold-plunge systems, where reliability, flow, and ambient heat loss affect equipment sizing.

TECO designs and manufactures in Italy and distributes through regional networks, treating service and spare parts as part of equipment intended for continuous operation. Expansion beyond aquatics does not represent abandonment of the original sector but application of the same refrigeration platform to different contexts. The three founders and 1988 are explicit; the present company continues a family tradition without conflating it with activities before incorporation.
