Johnson Controls’ expansion of Izmir plant shortens delivery times, triples production capacity for commercial heat pumps

Johnson Controls in Turkey

Johnson Controls has announced the expansion of production capacity at its plant in Izmir, Turkey. 

This three-million-dollar investment enables Johnson Controls to address increased European market demand for commercial heat pumps by improving production efficiencies and offering shorter delivery times for HVAC solutions for commercial customers throughout Europe.

“Heating and cooling are a significant factor in the carbon footprint of commercial buildings,” said Jens von Ebbe, Vice-President and General Manager HVACR, EMEA and India. “Optimising efficiency within these facilities through HVAC solutions such as commercial heat pumps is critical and I’m excited that our investment at our Izmir plant will ensure we are ready to meet the market need, especially here in Europe.”

The new production lines come with a strong infrastructure upgrade (pressure tests, charging station and leak test), effectively tripling Izmir’s capacity. With these upgrades, heat pumps and chillers can be delivered to customers within weeks.
