J&E Hall backs fight to save the Grimsby Ice Factory
[firstParagraph]
UK: J&E Hall, one of the most famous refrigeration companies, has added its weight behind efforts to save the Grimsby Ice Factory.
They join other supporters from the air conditioning and refrigeration industry including Telford-based contractor 3CL (another recent addition), ACR News, Advantage Air Systems, Business Edge, Heronhill and the Institute of Refrigeration
Significantly, it was J&E Hall of Dartford which installed the refrigeration plant during the 1930s upgrade. Equipment which is still standing in the Ice Factory and which helped to gain the Ice Factory's Grade 2 Star listing.
The Great Grimsby Ice Factory Trust which is co-ordinating efforts to save the historic building and its unique refrigeration equipment paid tribute to J&E Hall's long and expansive history, adding 'We are proud that J&E Hall still recognises the Grimsby Ice Factory as a part of that history.'
