  The $7-million facility in Bangkok, Thailand is expected to meet growing demand for advanced process cooling technology in the Asia Pacific region.   

 

Frigel announced at NPE 2015 that it's 9,000-square-meter (97,000-square-feet) manufacturing facility in Bangkok, Thailand is scheduled for completion in April. The new plant aims to meet growing demand in the Asia Pacific market for its advanced process cooling technology.
 
The $7-million investment in the new plant includes costs for land, construction and production machinery. The new facility, which began construction in 2013, is expected to be fully operational in September 2015. Frigel will transition to the new facility from its existing 1,000-square-meter (10,764 square-feet) Bangkok plant beginning this summer. 
 
Frigel’s process cooling technology is uniquely designed to help plastics processors and manufacturers across a wide spectrum of industries maximize efficiencies in cooling plant equipment – and as a result – save costs and improve productivity and sustainability.

According to Frigel CEO Duccio Dorin, the sizeable increase in the company’s Thailand manufacturing operation signifies the company’s commitment to the Asia Pacific market. He added that it also signals clear optimism for overall company growth as manufacturers worldwide increasingly adopt advanced process cooling technologies. “The whole market is moving toward more advanced process cooling technology as companies seek to more effectively satisfy their process cooling needs, and it’s a trend that continues to accelerate given today’s productivity, operational costs and environmental challenges,” Dorin said. “We’re excited about the plant nearing completion since it will only help to enhance Frigel’s reputation for quality products and service in not only Asia Pacific, but elsewhere as the increased manufacturing capability supports our corporate-wide production goals.”
 
Frigel is a recognized pioneer in advanced process cooling technology – including the Ecodry 3DK Closed Loop Adiabatic Liquid Cooler system, a patented adiabatic technology that is easily adaptable to any climate, system or process. The system provides the ability to increase water and energy savings, improve cooling precision, and lower maintenance when compared with a conventional cooling system. The new facility in Thailand will manufacture Ecodry 3DK, as well as other Frigel products, including Microgel Chiller/TCUs. The compact, portable units allow plastic processors to maintain precise, microprocessor-controlled temperature at molding machines. When compared to central chillers, Frigel Microgel units are able to greatly enhance productivity and energy efficiency.
 
In addition to the plant in Thailand, Frigel has two manufacturing facilities in Italy, including its Corporate Headquarters in Scandicci (Florence), as well as Brazil, where it also provides sales, engineering, parts and product support. Additional operations that provide sales, engineering, parts and service include the United States, Germany and Australia. Strategically located throughout the world, Frigel provides comprehensive industry expertise and support virtually everywhere manufacturers are located.
