New Production Site in Richmond, USA

Condair has established a new production facility in Richmond, Virginia, United States, marking a strategic move to enhance its proximity to customers and reinforce its position in the American market.

As a pioneer in humidification, dehumidification and evaporative cooling, the Swiss-based Condair Group aims to bolster its evaporative technologies business in North America. Recognizing the importance of customer proximity and supply chain efficiency in driving future growth, Condair has chosen Richmond, Virginia, as the location for its new production site.

The new 400,000 ft2 (37,000 m2) Richmond facility located on 57 Acres (23 hectare) is slated to commence operations at the onset of 2025, with an estimated employment of approximately 180 individuals. Furthermore, Condair plans to transfer its current production operations from Center, Texas, to Richmond by 2026.

Oliver Zimmermann, CEO of Condair Group, expressed confidence in the move, stating, "We are committed to being a reliable partner for our customers while also fostering our company's growth. The establishment of the Richmond site will not only bolster our production capabilities but also facilitate closer engagement with our clients, particularly in the data center sector. Together with our existing sites in Racine, Wisconsin, USA, and Ottawa, Canada, we are fortifying the Condair network to better serve our clientele across the continent."
