UK: ICS Cool Energy, the chiller hire and sales company, has expanded its UK operations with the opening of a new 3,000m² sales, distribution and warehousing facility in Bradford.

The new facility comprises 465m² office and training areas, 2,500m² warehouse and test facilities, together with extensive yard and car parking space. It is also said to provide fast access to the major industrial routes serving the north of the UK from its location adjacent to the M606 and M62.

The company provides hire and sales of a range of temperature control products including heat pumps and heating equipment.

Employing around 250 people across the UK, the head office is in Southampton and in addition to Bradford, there are offices in Birmingham, Scotland and the South East. The expanding network of European sites includes Holland, Germany, France, Switzerland, Poland, Finland, Hungary and Portugal.

“With the acquisition and re-development of our new premises in Bradford, we not only have showcase offices with sales training facilities and space for growth but also a larger warehousing and distribution facility,” said director Adam Spolnik.

And now with our expanded Northern hub, it’s already helping us to be even more responsive with a large supply of heating and cooling solutions from the UK’s largest range in stock and ready to go to all points of the compass,” he explained.
