- Elco Ltd. (ELCO.TA) is an Israel-based company engaged in the design, manufacture, and marketing of heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC), water heating solutions, and renewable energy systems for residential, commercial, and industrial applications. The company offers a diverse portfolio of products and services including gas and electric boilers, heat pumps, solar thermal collectors, district heating systems, air handling units, chillers, and energy-efficient water heaters under its own brands such as Elco, Baxi, and Chromagen; it also provides installation, maintenance, and smart energy management services. Founded in 1960 and headquartered in Petah Tikva, Israel, Elco operates primarily in Israel and expands geographically across Europe, the Middle East, and select Asian markets, serving utilities, contractors, and end-users in the building and energy sectors. In recent developments within the last two years, Elco has pursued strategic expansions through partnerships with European HVAC leaders for heat pump technology integration and announced a major funding round in 2024 to bolster its renewable energy division amid growing demand for sustainable solutions. The company launched new lines of hybrid heat pump systems and smart IoT-enabled boilers in 2025, aligning with EU green energy regulations, while acquiring a stake in a local solar components manufacturer to enhance its supply chain for photovoltaic-integrated heating products. These initiatives reflect Elco's shift toward low-carbon technologies and operational growth, supported by its position as a subsidiary within the Fitzgate Group.
