VACCO was founded in 1954 as Vacuum and Air Components Company of America to design, develop and manufacture high performance valves. In the early years, the company was there to meet the demands of the swiftly rising missiles industry, manufacturing a variety of valves for cryogenic, high pressure and other chemicals and propellants required for missile fueling and operation.In the 1960s, the company shortened its name to VACCO Industries. When rapid growth hit the space industry, VACCO was there to support it by developing innovative products, like the unique etched disc filter for precision, high performance filtration of propellants used on board satellites and space vehicles. VACCO also continued developing and manufacturing new valve designs for the space industry in the ‘60s. In fact, VACCO manufactured well over 50,000 components ranging from small filters and valves aboard the Gemini and Apollo crew capsules’ RCS systems to giant valves used for fueling the Saturn 5 rockets.
