How we help

Supporting industries with smart & sustainable solutions

24/7 operations

“The butter can’t melt” is a rallying statement within Active Refrigeration’s Dairy plant customers, reflecting the industry’s need for absolute reliability. With 24/7 operations and daily milk flows that continue uninterrupted when cows are in season, the high-volume, high-quality Dairy sector is a major force in New Zealand’s export industry. Meeting demanding global standards and handling sensitive product constituents require the highest level of plant reliability and strict preventative maintenance programmes. Refrigeration solutions must also ensure full compliance with industry regulations for food safety, making reliability non-negotiable.

System dependability

Active Refrigeration prioritises system dependability to prevent downtime and production losses. This is achieved through regular maintenance, real-time monitoring, and the use of high-quality components that enhance overall performance and longevity. A refrigeration failure in a Dairy plant can have costly consequences, making preventative measures essential to ensure continuous and efficient operations.

Scalability & flexibility

Another key focus is scalability and flexibility. System designs consider future expansion and evolving production needs, allowing businesses to grow without compromising efficiency. Unique solutions, such as modular and scalable refrigeration systems, provide the adaptability required to meet changing demands, ensuring long-term success for Dairy processors.

Reliable. Precise. Efficient.
