New factory for British solar reefer firm

Sunswap, the pioneering British manufacturer of zero-emission transport refrigeration systems, has expanded its operations with the opening of a new production facility in Leatherhead, Surrey.

This move comes as the company experiences increasing demand for its solar and battery-powered refrigeration units across the UK and Europe.

The new facility will produce Sunswap’s “Endurance” transport refrigeration units (TRUs), which combine battery storage with roof-mounted solar panels in order to operate efficiently without relying on fuel.
