Munters lands €195m data centre cooling orders

SWEDEN: Munters reports receiving orders totalling SEK2.1bn (≈€195m) for cooling equipment from an unnamed colocation data centre company in the USA.

The order covers chilled water computer room air handlers, coolant distribution units and chillers for multiple data centres across the US. Deliveries are scheduled to begin in Q4 2026 and continue through Q1 2028.

The orders are said to include all the major cooling components for the customers’ chilled water infrastructure including custom CRAHs, CDUs and Geoclima Circlemiser chillers as well as service for start-up and commissioning. Production will take place in Munters’ US data centre production facilities.

Munters acquired Geoclima, the pioneering Italian chiller manufacturer in 2024.

“These orders perfectly reflect the vision behind our Geoclima acquisition – broadening our participation in the value chain and supplying complete chilled water systems to customers. They include units for air cooling and liquid cooling, covering thermal management from the server rooms to outdoor heat rejection, combining our own developments with the technology we acquired,” said Stefan Aspman, Munters’ group vice president and president of Munters’ data centre technologies business group.
