TECO Europe

TECO Europe are a wholly owned subsidiary of TECO Electric and Machinery Co. Ltd, based in Taiwan. The multinational parent corporation has a $12.6 billion turnover in a number of industry sectors and, having acquired Westinghouse Motors in 1995, is the third largest electric motor manufacturer in the world.

TECO Europe's UK operation, established in 1993, is based in Salford, Manchester, and holds large stocks of low-voltage European-design aluminium and cast iron motors to IE2 and IE3 efficiency standards, as well as a full range of variable-speed drives. The Salford facility also houses the UK arm of the company's European Projects Division, providing the capability to design and project manage the manufacture of medium- and high-voltage motors and large motor/drive combinations. The project team also has the experience to provide motors for safe and hazardous area environments to IEC or NEMA standards.

TECO design, manufacture and supply motor power ranges from fractional horsepower up to 22MW to a variety of global standards. They have the advantage of owning their own manufacturing plants with their own R&D teams, allowing them to offer tailor-made solutions to specific customer needs. The UK motor and drive stock is backed up by European stocks held in Germany and The Netherlands, as well as being supported by eight wholly owned manufacturing plants in the Far East and the US.
