Clivet combines UK businesses

UK: Italian manufacturer Clivet has merged its UK sales and service businesses – Clivet UK Ltd & Clivet Aircon Ltd – into a single company, Clivet Group UK Ltd.

The move follows Clivet’s acquisition by Chinese manufacturer Midea last year and combines its commercial and industrial air conditioning sales, support and maintenance business into a single concern.

“This move will allow our customers to benefit from the complete Clivet range of systems ensuring the best possible choice on the market, whilst also being able to utilise the service and repair facility across the country, all from one company,” commented UK general manager Edoardo de Pantz.

“Bringing both businesses together will enable us to offer the complete range of Clivet designed and manufactured systems into the UK to our client base. Whether that is a single heat pump for new build or retrofit homes to a large scale project with multiple units, Clivet Group UK Ltd will now be the single point of contact for all of your HVAC needs,” he added.
