Evapco LMP formed following acquisition

CANADA: US cooling tower manufacturer Evapco has formed a new company, Evapco LMP,  following the acquisition of Canadian CO2 refrigeration systems company Systèmes LMP. 

Established in 1998 and based in Laval, Quebec, Systemes LMP’s main business is in the design and manufacture of transcritical CO2 refrigeration and heat recovery systems. The plan is that, together, the two companies will expand the reach of their products to a broader audience.

In a statement, the company said that the formation of Evapco LMP would enable it to expand its full spectrum of natural refrigerant-based solutions and expand its low-charge, packaged refrigeration offerings to include not only ammonia-based Evapcold products but now CO2-based Evapco LMP products.
