Benelux’s authorised Toshiba HVAC distributor, Intercool, has been acquired by Carrier Global Corporation.
The deal builds on a long-standing partnership between Toshiba HVAC – part of Carrier Global Corporation – and Intercool, which will maintain its independence as a dedicated sales organisation within Carrier Climate Solutions Europe, supporting the development of Toshiba HVAC solutions in the Benelux market.
“We are proud of the strong relationships we have built with customers and partners across the Benelux region,” shares Intercool MD Jeroen van Kaam. The HVAC specialist has spent the past five decades building a dedicated network of local installers and customers across the Benelux, supported by a team of 42 professionals with deep expertise in residential and light commercial heating and cooling solutions.
The deal supports Carrier’s strategy to further entrench the Toshiba HVAC business in the Benelux region while bolstering its multi-brand approach and strengthening its reputation with installers and customers. “This acquisition strengthens our presence in the Benelux region and Carrier’s position in the residential and light commercial markets,” says Matthias Van Ardenne, General Manager at Carrier Benelux. “Intercool brings a strong team, deep market knowledge and trusted customer relationships that will help us accelerate growth and deliver even greater value to customers across the region.”
For Intercool, joining forces with Carrier provides the backing and scale of a multinational player, unlocking new opportunities to expand the solutions it offers in the local market. “We combine the best of both worlds: the know-how, service and commitment that Intercool is known for, on the one hand, and the international expertise, innovative strength and possibilities of a global player in the field of climate and energy solutions, on the other.”
“We look forward to working together to continue delivering the exceptional value and service our customers expect,” Jeroen concludes.
