What MITA Cooling Technologies does

MITA Cooling Technologies S.r.l. is an Italian designer and manufacturer of industrial cooling and heat-exchange equipment, founded in 1960 and headquartered in Siziano, Province of Pavia. The company operates within MITA Group alongside subsidiaries TORRAVAL Cooling (forced-draft cooling towers, including data-center applications), Frigofluid (industrial chillers), and MITA Water Technologies (water treatment), and sells a comprehensive portfolio spanning adiabatic coolers (PAD-XL W, PAD-XS), dry/fin-fan coolers (MDC-F, MDC-V), refrigerant condensers (MCE, PAD-XL R), the patented Alchemist adiabatic subcooler for CO2/HFC/HFO systems, open-circuit evaporative towers (PMS, PME-E, PMM, PU, MCT), closed-circuit towers (MCC), a Cooling Distribution Unit for liquid-cooled data centers, industrial chillers (RW ax, RW/EFC ax, RP), and refurbished/regenerated coolers. Sales are driven by a consultative, technical-advisory model backed by proprietary sizing software (MITA Efficiency), an inverter-based fan control module (MITA Control System), and a remote-monitoring platform (MITA IoT 4.0).

The company serves industrial process cooling customers across food and beverage, metalworking, chemicals/pharmaceuticals, paper, textiles, plastics, oil and gas, and wastewater; HVAC-R customers in offices, hospitals, retail and entertainment; refrigeration operators using ammonia or low-GWP refrigerants; and the emerging liquid-cooling data-center segment. Revenue is generated through direct equipment sales in Italy, an international distribution partner network covering at least 15 countries across Europe, South Asia, East Asia, Oceania and the Americas, and recurring revenue from spare parts, regeneration services, rental cooling towers, and pre/post-sale engineering consulting. Pricing is quote-based per project and ranges from a few thousand to several hundred thousand euros depending on capacity and configuration.

Long-term installed references include Coca-Cola Kiev (food production), RAI Rome (broadcasting), SSAB Sweden (steel/paper), Ansaldo Energia in Sardinia (13 adiabatic PAD coolers), a major Indian textile group (wastewater cooling), Steriltom (tomato processing), the National Opera House of Ukraine, Ospedale Maggiore Bologna, and a Spanish data center (16 TORRAVAL forced-draft towers). Activity in 2024–2025 — including the October 2024 launch of the PME XL modular cooling tower, participation at Data Centre World 2025, and a February 2025 video push for the PAD-XL adiabatic dry cooler — indicates an explicit commercial push into AI/data-center cooling alongside the legacy industrial base.
