Innovation starts with listening.

At Fabdec Group, our best ideas come from understanding our customers’ challenges. By listening closely, we create solutions that not only solve problems but make day-to-day operations easier and more efficient.

Take EXCELSIOR’s Venturi technology. Installers wanted faster, simpler installation, while end users wanted lower maintenance. Our team responded by designing a system that cuts installation time, reduces maintenance needs, and keeps operations running smoothly.

Or consider the Fabdec Inverted Cone Silo Base, designed to improve durability and enhance agitation in our HI-KOOL dairy silos. This innovation helps processors maintain product consistency, reduces downtime, and extends the lifespan of the silo.

Every solution we create reflects the same principle: by listening first, we innovate second, delivering stainless steel systems that are practical, reliable, and built around real customer needs.

What makes a heat pump cylinder truly efficient?
It starts with the coil inside.

The EXCELSIOR team have recently completed another triple manifolded heat pump coil, a design we build regularly, but one that continues to show how much precision goes into every part of our manufacturing process.

As heat pumps become a core part of the UK's decarbonisation strategy, coil design matters more than ever. Lower flow temperatures and higher flow rates demand a coil that can transfer heat efficiently without creating unnecessary pressure drop, and that is exactly what a triple manifolded layout is engineered for.

Behind the scenes, these coils require real engineering excellence:
• Consistent, clean welds
• Carefully aligned flow paths
• Even spacing to maximise surface area
• Smooth bends for reduced resistance

It may look simple, but the performance it unlocks is anything but.

Did you know?
Splitting the flow into three parallel paths can significantly reduce pressure drop compared to a single long coil, helping heat pumps run more efficiently and maintain stable hot water temperatures.

If you are specifying heat pump cylinders, speak to our team about how coil design can influence system performance.

Ever wondered how milk stays perfect even in the freezing months?

While winter chills everything around us, your milk doesn’t have to feel the cold. Fabdec Dairy Systems’ insulated tanks, combined with a sensitive temperature probe, actively monitor and adjust cooling to keep milk at the ideal temperature within ±1°C – no overcooling, no wasted energy, and minimal maintenance.

Reliable, precise, and winter-ready: our tanks keep production smooth, schedules predictable, and milk ready for processing at peak quality, even when winter is at its coldest.
