Carrier celebrates 100 years of manufacturing in Italy
VILLASANTA, Italy, March 11, 2008 — Carrier
Corp., a subsidiary of United Technologies Corp. (NYSE: UTX), will
commemorate the 100-year anniversary of its subsidiary in Italy,
Carrier S.p.A, with a European customer event at its Villasanta
manufacturing facility near Milan.
In 1908, six years after Willis Carrier invented modern air
conditioning, two engineers in Milan, A. Chieregatti and A. Donesana
founded Dell’Orto, a ventilating and heating systems and services
company. In 1941, Dell’Orto became Dell’Orto Chieregatti. In 1945,
the company built its production facilities in Villasanta and soon
won prestigious projects including La Scala in Milan and La Fenice
Theater in Venice. The company was re-named Delchi in 1966, during a
decade when expanded rapidly as a leading systems provider. It
completed premier installations such as providing air conditioning
for Milan’s Galfa skyscraper and the Gran San Bernardo tunnel
ventilating system. In 1983, Carrier acquired Delchi. The company
became Delchi Carrier and subsequently, in 1996, Carrier S.p.A.
Today, Carrier S.p.A’s countrywide distribution network in Italy
provides heating and air-conditioning solutions for residential,
commercial and industrial applications, together with a broad range
of after sales services and training programs. The factory, still
located in Villasanta, is one of Carrier’s leading global factories,
which produced more than 300,000 units in 2007.
The Villasanta factory is also Carrier’s global lead design centre
for light commercial products focusing on duct-free splits, indoor
units, small chillers and heat pumps.
Carrier products from Villasanta are installed in many prestigious
buildings in Italy and worldwide including: The Sistine Chapel in
the Vatican City, the Uffizi Gallery in Florence, the shrine of the
Turin Shroud, the Monza Formula 1 racetrack, the Tower Hotel in
Cagliari, the Olympics Games Village in Athens and the Marriot Hotel
in El Cairo.
“Thanks to all our customers and collaborators, we can say that we
have helped improve the standards of living during the last
century,” said Roberto Stevenin, chairman of the board and managing
director of Carrier S.p.A. “For the next 100 years, we are committed
to achieving even more. We‘ll continue to invest in innovation to
provide even higher quality products, to further improve the
environment in which we and our families live, and to ensure our
customers are completely satisfied.“
Carrier will display its innovative products at the international
fair “Mostra Convegno Expocomfort” in Milan, March 11 to 15.
