Germany-based Bitzer Group, a specialist in refrigeration compressors, is expanding its presence in Iran with the setting up of its new subsidiary Bitzer Iranian that will report to its Middle East site in Dubai, UAE.

The foundation ceremony for the new subsidiary was held at the Espinas Hotel in Tehran, Iran yesterday (December 5).

Bitzer, whose compressors have been well represented in the Iranian market for decades, is developing a service concept tailored to Iran's specific requirements.

In Iran, the reciprocating, screw and scroll compressors and condensing units provided by the long-standing German company are used in various applications. Bitzer would also like to take action against counterfeit compressors from China, which can be found more and more frequently in the Iranian market.

The Bitzer Group is the world's largest independent manufacturer of refrigeration compressors with sales companies and production sites for reciprocating, screw, and scroll compressors as well as pressure vessels all over the globe. – TradeArabia News Service
