A breath of fresh air in Antibes


Heinen & Hopman_2Heinen & Hopman will attend this year’s Antibes Yacht Show in April to showcase the full range of its products and promote its local office for the Mediterranean. The HVAC specialists have a great deal of know-how to share… And an impressive selection of leading edge solutions for the maritime world.

The Antibes Yacht Show will take place in the famous Port Vauban, the largest marina in Europe, between Wednesday 23 and Saturday 26 April. This is the Mediterranean’s unmissable spring show, where professionals present their products and services just before the season starts. Over 15,000 people visited the show last year.

Heinen & Hopman will be present at this year’s event with a stand exhibiting its unparalleled expertise in the field of heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration, and underlining its strong regional presence. Keeping in mind the old saying that prevention is better than cure, visitors will have the opportunity to win a full check-up of their onboard HVAC systems.

Within the maritime sector, the company is known for its innovative and client-oriented approach that provides bespoke solutions created in close cooperation with its clients. “We specialise in providing HVAC systems for the nautical industry, including yacht building and shipyards, the navy, commercial clients, the offshore industry and most recently, offshore windmills,” says , Communications Manager Jessica van Montfoort. “Our success as an industry leader can be attributed in large part to an ability to be flexible when it comes to meeting client requirements. Within Heinen & Hopman we have a multi-disciplinary workforce and can easily match the right person to a specific problem.”

H&H France

Heinen & Hopman’s dedicated French office is the only specialised marine HVAC representative for Heinen & Hopman systems that covers the coastline from Marseille in France to Genoa in Italy, including Monaco and the Côte d’Azur. In addition, Heinen & Hopman can ensure top-notch after-sales support and guarantee quality solutions. The office provides all yacht owners and shipyards with the convenience of a trusted service and maintenance provider in this key sailing region.

Heinen & Hopman’s service on the Côte d’Azur was recently reinforced by the appointment of a new full-time service mechanic to the dedicated office in Antibes. “This addition increased our capacity to provide short-notice, on-site support and maintenance as well as a variety of service and after-sales programmes for onboard air-conditioning, heating, mechanical ventilation and provision cooling systems,” underlines Joep Hopman, CEO of Heinen & Hopman Engineering.

“We have noticed that many of our customers use their systems right until the moment they stop working completely,” adds Van Montfoort “In addition to having a detrimental effect on the performance of the onboard equipment, this wastes energy and cost efficiency and, of course, does little to help reduce CO2 emissions. This is why we decided to give visitors to the Antibes Yacht Show the opportunity to win a system check-up.
