Ariston Thermo SpA , based in Fabriano ( Province of Ancona ), is an Italian family heating technology company .
history
Ariston Thermo and the Ariston brand go back to the legacy of Aristide Merloni, who started his own business as a manufacturer of scales in 1930 . Later on, the production of liquefied gas cylinders, gas stoves and hot water boilers began under the Ariston brand. After the founder's death, the company was split up under his sons in 1975: a family branch continued the household appliance business, from 2005 under the name Indesit . The Francesco Merloni branch of the family took over the water heater business. In 2009 the company Merloni Termosanitari (MTS) changed its name to Ariston Thermo . Since 2011, Indesit has not advertised with the traditional Ariston brand.
