ACO Automation Components—Moisture Measurement in Horheim—is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year

On 23 March 2001, Johannes Mergl founded ACO—Automation Components—Moisture Measurement in Horheim.
What began as a small venture back then is now an established supplier of industrial moisture measurement solutions with customers worldwide.

Since then, ACO has stood for:

  • reliable measurement technology for bulk materials
  • practical solutions rather than theory
  • close cooperation with our customers
  • development and manufacturing in Germany

Thank you to Johannes Mergl for 25 years of entrepreneurial spirit, technical passion, and the courage to forge his path.
And thank you to all our customers, partners, and companions who are part of this story.

Here’s to the next 25 years.
