Mission
History
1960
Since it was founded, FRIGEL FIRENZE has been manufacturing machinery and equipment for industrial process cooling and temperature control.
1980
In the early 80’s, Frigel was the first company to propose air-blast fluid coolers (Ecodrygel) in place of chillers and cooling towers to cool hydraulics of processing machines, starting a real revolution in the field of industrial process cooling.
1994 1990-93
In the early 90’s the Microgel family of Process Chillers were developed and integrated with Ecodrygel to form the revolutionary Frigel Ecodry System: an integrated approach to the plastic processing cooling requirements. During this time Frigel started to expand its sales network to major foreign markets, with selected agents and distributors.
Following a rapid expansion in sales, both in domestic and foreign markets, moved from its 600 sq.mt. (6,500 sq.ft.) plant to a new 3.500 sq.mt (37,800 sq.ft.) building. In 1994, Sales reached 1,5 million Euros.
1,5million euros
Frigel is a Market Leader around the World in Process Cooling, with three major objectives: 1. Finding “optimal” technical Solutions, maximizing performance and operational savings (energy and water); 2. Assuring a global presence with an extensive network of specialized local customer support; 3. A commitment to adopt technical solutions able to minimize the environmental impact. Frigel is much more than a manufacturer and supplier of Cooling and Temperature Control equipment. It is a real “technical consultant”, able to clearly identify the best solution (in terms of performance, efficiency, environmental impact and thus return on investment) for each application and explain and prove these concepts to each customer. This approach is the “heart” of our ability to innovate. The constant effort in finding the most efficient solutions for each customer is very often the trigger of new ideas and technological progress.
2004
Frigel opens its first subsidiary in China, followed two years later by a second subsidiary in the USA. In that year sales reached 10 million Euros.

2007
In order to respond to the continuous expansion, Frigel built and moved to a new 10,000 sq mt (108,000 sq ft) headquarters.
2008
The US subsidiary (Frigel North America) bought and moved to its new US headquarter; a 4.000 sq.mt (40,000 sq ft) building near Chicago, where it started to manufacture its products locally in order to reduce transport costs and lead times. The Group Sales in 2008 exceeded 20 million Euros.
Today
More than 5.000 cooling plants supplied by FRIGEL are running world-wide. With its network of subsidiaries, exclusive distributors and after-sales service organizations, Frigel is able to quickly and accurately satisfy its customer’s requests in any part of the world.
