Established in 2000, Brooktherm is a leading provider of industrial refrigeration and HVAC services, primarily in the Northwest of the UK. It provides a full scope of turnkey projects and services, including the design and supply of bespoke maintenance and service supported by a complete portfolio of spares. Brooktherm will maintain its trading name as a member of the Daikin Group. 

The acquisition of Brooktherm marks another step in Daikin’s strategy to develop its Industrial HVAC projects and solutions capability while strengthening its technical knowledge in preparation for new innovations such as natural refrigerants.

Daikin Applied (UK) in association with its service division, Daikin Applied Service, and Brooktherm, will be able to consolidate its position as a leading provider of service and maintenance solutions for a wide temperature range of products covering refrigeration, process cooling and industrial HVAC applications. 

Brooktherm’s current directors, Jamie and Daniel Keating, will continue to be involved in the management of the company and not only continue to support its existing customer base but also drive growth and development with the support of a global owner.

Jamie Keating commented: “The acquisition by Daikin Applied is an important step for Brooktherm Refrigeration and will provide the investment needed for significant expansion and growth across the UK. We are excited about this new chapter in our company and are eager to combine our skills and strengths for the benefit of our customers”.

Claudio Capozio, CEO of Daikin Applied Europe added: “We are pleased to welcome Brooktherm to the Daikin family. The Brooktherm acquisition is an important progression that complements and strengthens Daikin’s established applied sales and service organisation within the UK. Brooktherm has a wealth of knowledge in service, maintenance and turn-key installation projects, and brings a high level of technical expertise across all HVAC areas. We look forward to this acquisition enhancing our ability to support our customers with the premium service that both Daikin and Brooktherm are renowned for.”.
