Airedale has reported that its unit sales for the week beginning 21 November were the highest since it returned to the Rawdon site (pictured) in January 2016 following a major fire in September 2013. In the interim, the company relocated to temporary facilities while the old building was demolished and redeveloped.

Sales for the week were £1.6 million and were particularly bolstered by solid demand for its range of chillers.

Managing director Tony Cole said, ‘2016 has been a year of tremendous challenge for the entire HVAC industry. I am particularly proud of our success, which was achieved against a background of considerable global uncertainty.

‘We have proven that our long-term strategy of globally balanced, sustainable and profitable growth is delivering, and we have maintained our position as the UK’s leading cooling-solution manufacturer.

‘I am quietly confident of a strong year in 2017.’
