The family business since 1990
HAUPT Kühlsysteme GmbH is a family business founded in 1990 and based in Wilhelmsthal-Steinberg in Upper Franconia. The company plans, designs and manufactures industrial cooling systems, single- and two-stage industrial and large-scale heat pumps using the natural refrigerant ammonia, air conditioning technology, compressed air technology as well as electrical and control engineering. Its core product is turnkey ready-to-use container systems, which can be up to 15 m long and 3.95 m wide and are pre-fabricated completely in the company's own production facility, including peripherals, pump groups, load and control cabinets and safety equipment. In addition, HAUPT offers piping construction in stainless steel, steel, copper and plastics, cooling water treatment, heat recovery, control cabinet construction and PLC programming. Customers include data centers, the glass and construction industries, energy and heat suppliers, and municipalities for district heating networks. The range is completed by installation, commissioning and a 24/7 service with maintenance contracts, spare parts supply and remote maintenance.
