Daikin Applied Europe is a specialised provider of advanced HVAC and thermal management technologies for industrial processes, headquartered in Ariccia, near Rome, Italy. As a subsidiary of Daikin Industries, the company acts as the European centre of excellence for the engineering and manufacturing of high-capacity, high-efficiency systems designed to support demanding industrial applications.
With a strong focus on process technology, Daikin Applied Europe develops and produces industrial chillers, heat pumps, air handling units, compressors and inverter-driven solutions engineered to ensure precise temperature control, operational continuity and energy efficiency. These systems are deployed in a wide range of industrial sectors, including manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, food and beverage, chemicals, electronics, and data-intensive industrial environments, where process stability and reliability are critical to productivity and product quality.
Daikin Applied Europeās portfolio covers cooling capacities from 10 kW up to 11,000 kW, enabling the company to address both decentralised process requirements and large-scale centralised cooling systems. In parallel, its air handling technologies provide airflow capacities from 200 to 144,000 mĀ³/h, supporting industrial ventilation, air treatment and controlled environments where air quality, humidity and thermal consistency are essential to process performance.
Energy efficiency and sustainability are integral to the companyās approach to industrial process technology. Daikin Applied Europe designs solutions that minimise energy consumption and reduce environmental impact, while maintaining high levels of robustness and reliability under continuous or variable load conditions. High-efficiency heat pumps for process heating, low-GWP refrigerant solutions, and advanced inverter-driven compressors are developed to support industrial decarbonisation strategies and compliance with increasingly stringent environmental regulations.
The company also places strong emphasis on system integration and lifecycle performance. Its technologies are designed to interface seamlessly with industrial automation, monitoring and control systems, enabling predictive maintenance, performance optimisation and long-term operational resilience. This makes Daikin Applied Europe a strategic partner for industrial operators seeking to improve energy performance, reduce downtime and optimise total cost of ownership.
Daikin Applied Europe employs approximately 1,130 people and operates three manufacturing facilities in Italy, where engineering, production and quality assurance are closely integrated. This industrial footprint allows the company to deliver customised solutions, maintain high manufacturing standards and respond efficiently to the specific technical requirements of industrial process applications across Europe and global markets.
By combining industrial-grade engineering, application-specific expertise and a strong commitment to energy-efficient technologies, Daikin Applied Europe supports the evolution of more sustainable, reliable and high-performing industrial processes.
