Going international

By presenting technical papers on the main ammonia conferences and with a growing customer base from different continents, the consultancy has already developed an international profile. ISECO operates from a central base in Victoria, Australia, however, projects have been carried out in all Australian states, as well as New Zealand and the U.S.. With the development of the Internet it is proven effective and economical to work from a single base providing services to an ever-expanding geographical circle of clients. Managing Director Ray Clarke feels the time is now right to offer its range of services to a broader international client base.


Most recent project: Ammonia small charge system for supermarket

ISECO has now completed the concept design for a unique ammonia refrigeration system for small supermarkets having about 1000sqm of floor area. The concept consists of three chillers and one freezer duty stand alone refrigeration packages, each package having a maximum 8.5kg ammonia refrigerant charge. The main objective of the project was to reduce carbon footprint. The next stage is to carry out the detailed design and construct as well as to install and test the system in a selected location.
