New industrial process cooling company covering Coventry and Cheltenham launches

Coventry and Cheltenham-based Direct Air & Pipework has launched a new company, Direct Cooling Solutions, with Owen Crawford taking on the role of Sales and Projects Director.

Owen has more than 25 years’ experience within the industrial process cooling marketplace, enabling Direct Cooling to be a solution provider for cooling and chiller requirements.

He said: "Direct Cooling provided an opportunity to take my experience in the industrial process cooling market to the next level, combining my existing relationship with Parker with Direct Air’s established business infrastructure.

"We can provide chillers, heat pumps, cooling towers, dry, adiabatic, and free coolers to both industrial and HVAC clients nationwide. "It’s been an exciting couple of months watching the brand develop and building relationships with my new colleagues to be able to support our customer base to the highest quality.”

Direct Cooling Solutions is an authorised distributor for Parker’s Hyperchill Plus (ICEP) and Hyperchill (ICE) range of chillers.

Allan Dolby, Managing Director at Direct Air, said: “The synergies between the compressed air industry and the opportunities for the industrial cooling and chiller sector made the development of a new associate company a straight-forward decision. 

"It was imperative that for us to be successful in this marketplace to have an individual come on board with extensive technical and industrial knowledge, which in Owen we have achieved. Direct Air has just celebrated its 30^th anniversary, I look forward to where Direct Cooling Solutions will be in the years to come”.
