Customer Story – Columbia, SC Manufacturing Facility Relies on MTA Chillers

For nearly a decade, the Trane Columbia, SC manufacturing facility has utilized MTA chillers on their ten Salvagnini punching machines. Due to the demonstrated reliable performance, MTA chillers were the obvious process cooling choice when a new laminator needed to be installed in 2025.

It wasn’t just the reliable process cooling that has made the MTA process chiller installation successful. The process chiller was in-stock and readily available, enabling quick deployments without compromising the project timeline. Additionally, the process cooling expertise provided throughout the project was unmatched. The Program Manager worked with Howard Kielar, the Solutions Leaders for MTA-USA at Trane. To ensure the process chiller was the perfect fit for the application, Kielar worked directly with both the Henneke and Trane Columbia team to get a full understanding of the project and obtain the precise specifications.

“Now that MTA is part of Trane buying a unit from them was a good experience, there was an instant trust because they are part of Trane,” said Rick Suarez, Program Manager at the Trane Columbia, SC manufacturing facility. “I found Howard Kielar very knowledgeable and helpful in sizing the unit and checking in on Trane Columbia multiple times to make sure everything was as promised. Really some of the best service I have ever received from anyone!”
