Dubai, UAE, April 16th 2017: Leminar Air Conditioning Company, the leading distributor and service provider of HVAC and plumbing products in the GCC, has signed an exclusive agreement with Kuwait Insulating Material Manufacturing Co. (KIMMCO) for the distribution of Climaver, its lightweight pre-insulated ductwork system.
According to the agreement, Leminar will be the sole distributor of Climaver in the UAE. The product, which was introduced to the market in the early part of 2016, is considered the best alternative to traditional sheet metal duct systems. It is a practical solution that meets the stringent thermal, acoustic and fire performance requirements of the building market.
Mark Westermayer, Marketing Director of KIMMCO, said: “Climaver offers great value to the local HVAC industry and we wanted to make sure it reaches the consumer through a professional and reliable channel. Leminar is a business associate of over 20 years and we are confident that our product has a great future with them.”
Pramodh Idicheria, Executive Director, Leminar Air Conditioning Company, said: “The demand and uptake of fire-resistant ductwork have spurred with regulatory authorities emphasising on fire safety in construction. Climaver is an ideal product for our clients as it meets Euroclass and BS fire performance properties. We are always looking to bring more and more efficient products under our umbrella.”
Ajit Abraham, Territory Manager – Building Service Products, Leminar Air Conditioning Company, added: “Climaver is an all-in-one system that has superior acoustics and fire safety properties in addition to being cost-effective, space-saving and easy to install. Made of glass mineral wool duct boards, these self-bearing ducts can be used for all kinds of residential, commercial and public buildings.”
Climaver is a product with a distinguished pedigree as it was originally developed by French multinational Saint-Gobain ISOVER. KIMMCO, a subsidiary of Alghanim Industries and market leading insulation solution provider, is promoting the product with its team of experts in the GCC under the same license of ISOVER.
In addition to Climaver, Leminar is the largest stockist for KIMMCO fiberglass insulation, including pipe and duct insulation as well as its Clean Liner, a highly efficient acoustic material that is used to line air conditioning ducts, wall and ceiling of acoustically sensitive areas or facilities as home theatres or studios, curtain walls.
