Aqua launched in the UK in 2000 and opened its first North of England office in York in 2012. The business has grown and diversified over recent years and has recently recruited four new members of staff.

Mike West, who leads Aqua’s Northern sales division, explained: “Thorpe Park is the ideal base for us as it’s so accessible and well connected geographically. As the team has grown, it has become more and more important that we have a central base where our sales, service and project management teams can meet up face-to-face, and clients can easily visit.”

Thorpe Park business park is close to the main motorway links and very near to Leeds Bradford International Airport. The new office will act as a base for Aqua’s regional sales and service engineers, as well as their project management resource.

Aqua designs, supplies and installs industrial and process cooling systems across the UK and overseas. In 2015, the company won a Queen’s Award for Enterprise: Innovation in recognition of its Leak Prevention System (LPS) which enables data centres and critical applications to benefit from all the advantages of water-cooled solutions, but with a leak-free guarantee.

Aqua also has a hire division, Aqua Hire, which supplies temporary heating and cooling solutions to clients.
