MHI to open office in Lyon

FRANCE: Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Air Conditioning Europe (MHIAE) will open a new branch in Lyon, France, next month.

With the opening of the new branch, MHIAE seeks to benefit from the French HVAC market, which it sees entering a period of rapid growth, driven by urban expansion and new stringent sustainability regulations. 

The company’s long-standing partnership with French distributor Yack SAS will continue. 

In addition, a new partnership has been agreed with Aldes, a leading French ventilation company that MHIAE has been working with on OEM solutions for several years. The new deal will see an even broader range of energy-efficient products being offered, the company says.
