Modine to expand heat pump coil output

USA/SERBIA: Coil manufacturer Modine is expanding operations at its factory in Sremska, Serbia, to meet growing demand from the heat pump market in Europe. 

When complete later this year, the new facility will be a dedicated manufacturer of coils for commercial and residential heat pump applications.

Modine Serbia was established in 2014 to manufacture heat transfer coils used primarily in commercial refrigeration and HVAC applications. Over the years the facility received new investment and was expanded in 2019 to support the growing heat pump market. The new facility will be located next to the existing plant.

“The market for heat pumps is experiencing tremendous growth in Europe and we want our manufacturing centres closer to our key customers. Serving them with best-in-class heat transfer technology that reduces energy consumption and lowers harmful emissions is one way Modine lives out our purpose of engineering a cleaner, healthier world,” said Modine’s climate solutions president Eric McGinnis.
