Airedale International Air Conditioning has joined the Made in Britain initiative.

Airedale has been manufacturing high-efficiency cooling systems just outside Leeds since 1974 and is hugely proud of its British engineered products, fitting naturally with the vision of Made in Britain.

The Made in Britain initiative was launched in 2011 with the aim of helping people to identify British-made products. The not-for-profit organisation now includes thousands of products from over 800 members, ranging from large manufacturers to small companies and start-ups, with Airedale joining Stoves, Synergy Health, Acorn Stairlifts, Dwelle and King of Shaves among others.

Joining the Made in Britain campaign and applying the marque on all UK manufactured products serves as a means for customers to recognise goods that are manufactured in Great Britain.

John Pearce, chief executive of Made in Britain, said: “We were delighted when Airedale applied to join the fast-growing Made in Britain community. Manufacturing and innovation in the thermal technology sector is well represented in our membership but Airedale’s work across commercial, industrial and the public sector means the Made in Britain marque will have an extended reach. The more buyers, specifiers and consumers that see the marque, the louder the voice to promote British made goods and the great companies that make them.”

Managing director of Airedale International, Tony Cole, said: “By joining Made in Britain, unlike the vast proportion of our competitors, we are able to adopt a mark of distinction to our customer base. It is an assurance of quality, support and performance that is the DNA of our brand, and is demonstrated in the customer orientated systems we deliver.”
