better performance
SIROCO’S HEATING, VENTILATION AND AIR-CONDITIONING UNITS PROMISE
COMFORT WITHOUT COMPROMISE
For the last 40 years Siroco has been designing,
developing and manufacturing standard and
tailor-made heating, ventilation and air conditioning
(HVAC) systems for engine-powered and electric
vehicles in small and medium-size production.
“Siroco is a brand chosen by world’s largest
manufacturers because of its high-performance
products and its ability to solve technical issues
effectively,” says Julien Brochier, sales manager at Siroco.
“We work in partnership with our customers at each step
of product development to find reliable and costeffective
solutions. Then we drive our customers to
either standard products or specific solutions.”
As a major player in cooling and heating systems,
Siroco commits to total customer satisfaction with
powerful products easy to integrate into the cab. This
way, the company offers a turnkey service – drafting of
specifications, calculation of the components, 3D
validation of thermal control in the cabin and
prototyping validation. “On top of that, considering the
tight deadlines of our customers, we bet on smooth
delivery even with rising lead times by modernising our
tools,” says Brochier.
Teamwork
The Siroco engineering team, which has expanded
considerably over the past couple of years, is at the
heart of Siroco’s research and development department,
constantly strengthening both thermal and
electrical products.
“These include aeraulic test bench that measures
airflow efficiency as well as several measurement
devices to assess thermal comfort in the cab,” says
Charles Bonnet, product development manager. “We
are also equipped with 3D simulation software and

temperatures from -25°C to +50°C, as well as receiving
vehicles that weigh up to seven metric tons such as
compact excavators, backhoe loaders, skid steer loaders
and telescopic handlers.”
Global expansion
Outside of Europe, Siroco has strong commercial
positions in Japan and Korea. The company officially
launched a new subsidiary in India near Indore, for 100%
local production and components. The aim of this
development is to offer performances and best prices
even for complex HVAC units.
2019 was also a year of international expansion with
the opening of a new subsidiary in Morocco,
Mohammedia, offering electrical harnesses, assembly,
standard products and best prices to support the
automotive industry. NP Morocco is focused on the
provision of fast, cost effective solutions, from
prototypes through to mass production.
North America
Last but not least, NP Group – Siroco’s parent company
- opened a new subsidiary in Mexico specialising in
thermoplastic injection and thermosets. These facilities
offer a strong distribution network to meet with
flexibility HVAC customer demands in any place.
“We have advanced a great deal operationally in
adopting the group’s industrial and project-based
culture and we benefit from its international reach,”
says Mr Brochier. These operations express Siroco’s
willingness to enhance its international presence by
extending its business into North America. For 2020, the
company is searching for new business partners and
more distributors there. This it intends to do via its
presence at ConExpo.
Siroco offers expertise and commitment in its
quest to help its customers succeed. The company
is committed to creating robust, efficient, costcompetitive
HVAC solutions through an international
network located in Germany, Poland, India, Japan,
Korea and Morocco. iVT
