SHEco

What SHEco does

SHEco Group Ltd is a family-owned UK engineering services company founded in 1983, headquartered in Dudley Port, West Midlands. The group operates six subsidiary companies organised around three specialist engineering verticals: SHEco Engineering Services Ltd delivers HVAC and indoor climate control solutions for industrial and commercial customers; SHEco Renewable Systems Ltd supplies heating and cooling packaged solutions using renewable technologies targeted at decarbonisation projects; and SHEco Automotive Systems Ltd provides vehicle test equipment, fluid bulk storage, and end-of-line testing solutions to automotive manufacturers, additionally acting as the UK representative for Fives Filling and Sealing and Burke Porter products.

The group's technical offering is centred on bespoke engineering rather than proprietary software or platforms: design, installation, and maintenance of energy-efficient HVAC systems, renewable energy packaged plant, and automotive fluid handling infrastructure, supported by a certified engineering workforce (Refcom, Gas Safe, CHAS, UKAS, Construction Line, Alcumus Safe Contractor, Cyber Essentials). In 2024 the group extended its channel reach by becoming an Accredited Installer and Business Partner with Mitsubishi Electric, enabling deployment of mainstream manufacturer HVAC equipment alongside its bespoke work.

SHEco's revenue model is project-based and quote-driven, blending professional services (engineering design, installation, and maintenance contracts) with hardware sales through manufacturer representation agreements. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales targeting industrial, commercial, and automotive sector customers across the UK, with the customer base diversified across HVAC end users, automotive OEMs, and renewable energy clients. The company is privately held, has no external institutional investors, and operates a single UK office.
