Frascold opens Shanghai office

Ivan-CasaliITALY: Following its recent launch of a US subsidiary, Italian compressor manufacturer Frascold has opened an office in China.

Following a successful history of using traditional distribution networks in China, Frascold has decided to open its own company in Shanghai. It is headed by COO Ivan Casali, formerly CEO of RefComp in China.

Frescold maintains that this move will enhance stock availability and ensure rapid deliveries to all Chinese customers, as well as those in the Asia Pacific area, from Indo-China to Australia and New Zealand.

It will also provide a sales network that covers the whole territory through area managers and local distributors and an after-sales service network and technical back-up.
