Customers, guests and employees joined Tecumseh Products Company LLC and Century management in celebrating CTE’s twenty-year anniversary. CTE (Shanghai, China) is a solely foreign invested enterprise jointly owned by Century Equipment Company Ltd. (Hong Kong, China) and Tecumseh Europe SA (Lyon, France). The company produces commercial refrigeration condensing units and heat transfer coils for sale throughout China.

Tecumseh and Century are continuing to invest in CTE with the commitment of taking the joint venture to the next level. In addition to offering a standard line of indoor and outdoor condensing units, CTE works closely with customers in developing custom condensing units to meet their specific application needs. Tecumseh’s AJ Silence series indoor condensing units and Wintsys® series outdoor condensing units, that are well known throughout Europe, are now being produced by CTE.
Hin Choy Chong, Managing Director for Tecumseh Asia and Board of Director for CTE, stated that “the performance and reliability of Tecumseh compressors combined with the heat transfer technology developed by CTE has established a high level of acceptance for our condensing units throughout China.” Chong went on to say, “we’re working closely with CTE to improve their product offering with the objective of better serving our customers in China. Condensing units that use less energy and are quiet in operation have become increasingly important to the Chinese commercial refrigeration market.”
