Climarite creates industrial refrigeration division

UK: Skelmersdale-based commercial refrigeration contractor Climarite Refrigeration has now extended its capabilities with the creation of a dedicated industrial division and leadership team.

The move is described by the company as a natural progression and inevitable expansion, as demand for its industrial engineering services has grown significantly over the past 12 months.

Formed in 2015, Climarite has established a strong reputation in the commercial sector to become one of the leading refrigeration specialists in the Northwest, credits recent appointments and an improved team skillset for paving the way into industrial.

“Our venture into industrial is the result of building a team of incredibly experienced and technically capable engineers, rather than a deliberate plan on my part,” commented MD Patrick Connolly. “It is their expertise and passion that has gradually pulled us in the sector and presented the opportunity to grow in this direction.”

Climarite’s current industrial client roster includes manufacturing, food production, agriculture, large-scale old storage and distribution centres.

“The commercial side of the business will always be at the core of what we do but by expanding our services we provide the best possible customer experience and enrichment within the company,” Connolly added.

As part of the expansion, Climarite is investing in a comprehensive training programme for existing team members, as well as the recruitment of additional specialist engineers.

The company is also working with key partners to ensure adequate infrastructure is in place to support ambitious growth plans.
