What Temperature does
Temperature Corporation designs, manufactures and services industrial chillers and complete modular process cooling systems from its headquarters at 111 Esna Park Drive, Unit 7, Markham, Ontario, Canada. Founded in 1984, the company has accumulated 40+ years of experience supplying chilling systems ranging from self-contained portable units to fully installed turnkey plant cooling systems. Its portfolio spans portable chillers (Mini, Standard and Water series), central chillers (water-cooled scroll, water-cooled screw, air-cooled scroll, remote condenser scroll, remote condenser screw), packaged chillers, cooling towers and pump tank sets, plus a wide set of vertical-specific chillers for medical imaging, micro-breweries/wineries/dairy, laser cutting, ice rinks, anodizing/plating, biogas condensing, heat reclaim, geothermal and hydrogen fuel cell applications.
The company's technical differentiator is a modular chiller architecture in which dual-compressor, dual-circuit chillers couple together into banks of up to 12 units (24 compressors) controlled by a System Remote Master (SRM) programmable controller that stages compressors on leaving chilled-water temperature, lead-lags to equalize run time, logs compressor starts and run hours, stores up to 100 alarm faults, and communicates with plant PLCs and BMS systems via BACnet IP, BACnet MS/TP and Modbus. All equipment is built with stainless steel structural frames, panel enclosures and tanks, and chiller models carry AHRI, CAN/CSA C22.2 No. 236, UL 1995, UL 207 and ESA/CSA certifications on control panels.
Temperature Corporation sells via a network of Canadian agents concentrated in Ontario, supplemented by direct inside-sales (toll-free, email, website quote forms). Pricing is custom and quote-based for every configuration, with a separate stock-chiller line available for immediate delivery at a stated price advantage versus competitors. The customer base is anchored in plastics processing (the primary segment) and includes named enterprise accounts in pharmaceutical (Abbott Laboratories), medical (Bristol Aerospace, Starplex Scientific), government (Public Works & Government Services Canada), education (Queens University), consumer goods (Samsonite Canada) and food (Rudolph's Specialty Bakeries). A sister-company relationship with Tandem Chillers provides the technology foundation for the modular line. The company is privately held with no disclosed funding rounds, revenue figures, or external institutional ownership.
