HVAC, air, and energy for food and beverage applications
- Power generation and electrical distribution to support your production processes, or keep you operational during an emergency. We use this to help you avoid lost revenue, perished goods, and a damaged reputation.
- HVAC solutions to improve worker comfort and productivity, especially in environments with hot and cold processes. We’ll help you find the right way to control environmental temperatures without introducing contaminants, condensation, and risk.
- Heaters for positive temperature dry storage or maintaining strict internal temperatures. We’ll right size your solution based on your environment and applications.
- Food-grade heat exchangers to support key processes including pasteurization. Our heat exchangers are guaranteed hygienic and only used in the food and beverage industry, complying with all relevant food regulations and supporting temperatures from -10℃ to 140℃.
- Cooling towers for temperature-sensitive processes, delivering evaporative cooling on any scale. Our cooling towers provide a final destination for your excess heat, with capacities of up to 10,000 gallons per minute.
- Cooling solutions for food processing, particularly below zero storage and processes, including cooling from -12℃ to +15℃, food and beverage heat exchangers, and air handlers from -25℃ to 0℃. We also provide ice water solutions for ice tanks in dairies.
- Dehumidification to protect your premises against rising humidity levels and reduce your risk of contamination from condensation. Our dehumidification for food and beverage production can also be used to maintain precise humidity levels for preserving powders, with units from 1600 to 7000m³/h.

Aggreko’s Greener Approach
At Aggreko, we’re committed to offering the latest technology and expert services to support our customers in their transition to a greener future. We help food and beverage companies meet rising customer and regulatory expectations, with equipment that’s designed to increase energy efficiency and performance while lowering the impact on the environment.
Switching to our hybrid energy plants and rightsized solutions means you can:
Reduce fuel consumption and cost
Reduce harmful emissions
(CO2, NOx, PM)
Reduce noise pollution
Ensure reliability and efficiency
- Our Tier 4F generators work in the same way as the cleanest car engines, limiting carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter to provide efficient energy for use in ultra-low-emissions zones.
- Our battery energy storage systems (BESS) are designed to deliver the ultimate in performance efficiency. These are ready-to-install energy solutions with everything included in a standard container, including inverters, HVAC, fire protection, and auxiliary components. All are tested by our experts and operated by the smartest software on the market.
- Our hybrid energy plants include a battery paired with a low-emissions or gas generator, meaning fuel is only used when it’s needed most. During non-peak hours or at night, the generator turns off and the battery provides energy – ideal for welfare structures, lights, and security systems. They are also fully automated and require minimal maintenance.

FAQs about Aggreko’s food and beverage compressed air, HVAC, and energy solutions
Many food production processes are resource-intensive, but forward-thinking producers are moving to greener, cleaner methods. Energy solutions are a particularly impactful change – moving from traditional generators to natural gas or hybrid energy solutions is an effective way to reduce emissions while reducing costs. The food and beverage industry can also reduce emissions by rightsizing equipment for dehumidification and HVAC to their actual needs, using temporary equipment to scale up and down as required.
What makes us unique is the breadth of our capabilities and the depth of our knowledge. We understand the challenges the food sector faces at every stage – from heating or dehumidifying storage areas to optimizing packaging lines. Whatever you’re producing and whatever your environment needs to do, we’ll help make it happen.
