Daikin-TrainingUK: Daikin UK has relocated its Birmingham offices and training centre to a new facility on the Birmingham Business Park.

The relocation from its Spitfire Road address to the larger 2,100ft² offices in Birmingham Business Park places the business close to the M42, and within close vicinity to Birmingham International Airport and the National Exhibition Centre.

The better-equipped facilities also include a 2,000ft² training centre, housing a variety of hvac equipment, including a VRV IV Heat Recovery unit,  VAM Heat Recovery Ventilation units, underfloor heating and solar  thermal panels that offer a range of training opportunities.

Sherin Hammad, Daikin UK’s Birmingham branch manager, said: “The training centre offers a great hub for the Midlands region. Here at Daikin UK we are committed to giving our employees and customers the best training available with the extensive range of facilities available at the new site. Birmingham is currently undergoing a large regeneration so it is vital that there are suitably trained hvacprofessionals in the area and we hope to be a big part of providing that trained workforce.”
