Hultsteins, the Swedish and UK sustainable refrigeration equipment manufacturer announces a key appointment aimed at helping to introduce the company’s cost and carbon-cutting systems to temperature-controlled operators in Scotland and the north of England.

Matt Hepburn-Taylor, joins Hultsteins with over 11 years’ experience, working alongside 2 leading UK refrigeration equipment suppliers, with responsibility for CSC multi-site account management, aftersales and customer relations.

“It’s exciting to be joining the Hultsteins family and I am looking forward to the challenges ahead,” says Matt. “Our industry is fast evolving, with sustainability and carbon footprint becoming key priorities within many temperature-controlled operations.

“Hultsteins’ Ecogen and Ecofridge ‘green energy’ products provide operators with the perfect environmental solution by enhancing performance, keeping costs down and virtually eliminating all harmful emissions.”

To this end, and to provide the optimum ‘all-electric’ refrigeration solution, Hultsteins is partnered with green energy innovators, Addvolt and Courage Technologies– both leaders in their field and pioneers in sustainable energy development.

“Hultsteins Ecofridge and Ecogen systems are already widely adopted,” adds Matt. “Now, through collaboration with like-minded manufacturers, we can offer diesel-free refrigerated transport for urban, multi-drop and longer distance deliveries, in single, dual or multi-temp configurations.”

Demonstration day to feature UK’s first dual temperature fully electric fridge with built-in battery, built by Courage Technologies

Hultsteins are joining forces with Addvolt to host a powerpack demo day on Wednesday 25th September 2024, at Hultsteins’ premises in Biggleswade, Bedfordshire.

Guests can expect to see innovative solutions from both Addvolt and Hultsteins. For example, by combining an Addvolt powerpack with a Hultsteins’ Ecogen2 hydraulic generator, refrigerated transport operators can benefit from 100% electrically -powered refrigeration for all types of delivery.

Matt Hepburn – Taylor concludes: “We will also have demonstrations of our Ecogen and Ecofridge products, as well as the UK’s first fully electric fridge with a built-in battery – fitted to a 5.2M body. We look forward to meeting friends old and new on the day!”
