Nordic Climate expands in Ireland

IRELAND: Nordic Climate continues to grow in Ireland through the acquisition of Northern Refrigeration Services, a Donegal-based specialist in refrigeration, heat pumps and heating solutions. 

Founded in 1965 and led by Gerald McGloin since 1997, the company has deep roots in the north-west of Ireland and a long tradition of technical know-how.

Northern Refrigeration Services specialises in the supply and installation of refrigeration, air conditioning, ventilation and domestic heat pumps, alongside service and maintenance.

Northern Refrigeration Services will continue to operate under its existing local brand and leadership as part of Nordic Climate Group.

“The company brings valuable expertise in refrigeration and heat pump solutions, and its presence in Donegal gives us a stronger position in the north-west of Ireland,” said Nordic Climate Group UK & Ireland CEO Ronnie Coutts. “We also see good opportunities for collaboration with our existing operations in Ireland, where we already have a strong presence with our Anglo-Irish Refrigeration business.”
