Business Unit Controls

In addition to its leading interests in heat emitters, Rettig ICC also operates a well known valves and control business.  These businesses use the Myson and MMA brands and, although increasingly playing a role in opening up new geographic markets in Europe and further field, they enjoy strong regional positions in the British Isles and in Scandinavian Markets.

The present business structure came about in April 2004  through the managerial combination of Swedish MMA and the Irish Myson Heating Controls. By combining the two companies into one Business Unit it has become possible to achieve a greater critical mass and acquire the strength to capture opportunities in markets where the brands are not present today.

Key products today are thermostatic and manual valves for heat emitters, manifolds, cooling valves, electronic programmers, control packs for underfloor heating systems, wax-based thermostats for OEM applications and increasingly both static and dynamic balancing valves used in larger residential and non-domestic applications. The core business in the future will remain the development, manufacture and marketing of products and systems for climate control. In essence, Business Unit Controls is aiming for profitable growth, organically and by acquisition on the European market.

Dan Ståhl, Director, has overall responsibility for the new Business Unit Controls.  Over the last few years, common processes have been introduced in market and business development. Two site Managers are responsible for day to day production issues in Markaryd,Sweden and Newcastle West, Ireland.

In September 2005, the Irish Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment opened the new state-of-the art Myson factory at Newcastle West, Co. Limerick at 2pm on 7th September. The new factory, built following the devastating fire in July 2005, represents a €25m investment in manufacturing in Ireland retaining direct employment for over 100 people and providing a great boost to the local economy.
