Refrigeration Machinery
Keeping perishable food items refrigerated is a critical, yet easily overlooked operational part for any vessel. A breakdown in the refrigeration machinery might cause an unplanned return to port or pause in operations, causing loss of revenue as well as being a potential reputational issue. Constantly evolving and tougher regulations on refrigerants make future-proofing refrigeration machinery a challenging task for any owner or operator.
As the market leader supplying compressor units, air coolers and high-end electronic control systems for refrigeration plants in cruise ships, ferries & offshore units, ALMACO can offer the most comprehensive customized turnkey refrigeration solutions. Some of the benefits ALMACO offers to the marine industry is a wide range of refrigeration machinery, flexible design, and a choice of compressors. Our high-end condensing units, brine chillers and control systems meet the stringent demands set by the marine environment and regulatory authorities.

Side by side throughout the lifecycle
The lifecycle of a ship or rig begins as soon as the first line is drawn. This is where ALMACO enters the picture to provide pre-contractual services. As the drawings come to life, equipment lists are made, and maintenance programs and spare part supply systems are created. Digital solutions and equipment inspections help the owners determine the needs for equipment updates, refurbishment and modernization. ALMACO takes care of the work from the first drawing to maintenance and eventually complete modernization projects.
