Centers complete multi- million stock investment
P
ipe Center and Climate Center has completed the roll out of its new, streamlined product range as part of a £7m stock investment. The company wants to ensure immediate availability of key product lines across the branch network, as part of a strategic plan to be the number one distributor in the market. The recent roll out into the larger Slough, Basildon and London City branches means all 51 combined Pipe Center and Climate Center branches will now stock a core range of between 1,000 and 1,500 products, depending on geographical demands. Each product has been selected based on an extensive review of customer and employee feedback, together with research of buying patterns to ensure Pipe Center and Climate Center has the
depth of stock that customers need on a daily basis. Andy Wighton, managing director, Pipe Center and Climate Center, said: “This is the biggest overhaul of the business in the past 10 years making us famous for pipes, fittings and valves. We have developed a core range of installation products which covers various application requirements and installation methods, from soldering through to press fitting – all of which are commonly found on any construction and maintenance project. “By making sure all combined branches have the right levels of stock for every single product in this core range, we will be able to improve efficiency and reduce the time our customers need to spend in branch – giving customers what they want when they want it.”
AAF Europe acquires Dinair A
AF Europe has acquired the Swedish Dinair Group AB as part of its plans to become the number one company in the global air filter market in all regions.
In addition, AAF Europe says the move is another clear example of its parent company, Daikin’s, long term commitment to both AAF and to the air filter business.
Philip Whitaker, chief executive of AAF international says that by working through Dinair the firm will offer Nordic customers more choice and better access to innovative products and services.
AAF International and Dinair say they will jointly develop the Nordic market by delivering innovative high performance filtration products to all customers interested in high value clean air. The historical local strengths of Dinair will be reinforced with AAF’s broader product offering to satisfy all of their customers’ clean air and indoor air quality needs.
14 December 2016
The new managing director of Dinair, Niels-Erik Kongste, who is also vp sales and marketing of AAF Europe, said that a stronger Dinair with a broad product range will be able to offer more choice to current and future customers in the Nordic region. Dinair is retaining the entire Nordic management team and the only change will be that ceo Fredrik Särnehed will move into a new role as senior adviser.
Dinair is one of the Nordic region’s largest manufacturers and suppliers of air filters. The company employs more than 350 people and operates its own manufacturing and product development. It is located in Vadstena, Sweden and has sales offices in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, Oslo, Helsinki and Riga.
AAF International is a global market leader in air filtration and is owned by the Japanese company Daikin, a world leader in heating pumps and air conditioning.
