Since the company was founded, it has been responsible for many of the key engineering breakthroughs which have revolutionised the boiler market. The current ''Baxi Group'' was formed in November 2000 by the merger of the heating interests of Newmond plc (formerly the European Building Products Division of Williams Holding Plc) and Baxi Holdings plc. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Baxi」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
