Two Ringwood companies, Coolmation and ColdService, won Air Conditioning Product of the Year and Contractor of the Year respectively at the annual Cooling Industry Awards.

Coolmation secured its win with a new innovation, the Rhoss Adaptive Function Plus, which significantly reduces the energy consumption of chillers and heat pumps.

Chairman of Coolmation Gary Franklin said: “We are hugely proud of this achievement. The product rightly deserves the prize for its impressive energy saving credentials at a time when saving fuel and carbon emissions are priorities for us all.”

He added: “Every single person in our 80 strong workforce is delighted with the news.”

ColdService won its award for all-round quality of service.

Chairman of ColdService Peter Grimes said: “For an independent business up against much bigger corporations, this success is a ringing endorsement of the way ColdService does business.”

The awards were held at a gala dinner at the Hilton Hotel in London, in front of an audience of more than 700 guests. Both Coolmation and ColdService operate with a head office in Ringwood and regional offices across the country, providing national coverage.
