World's largest maker of air conditioning and refrigeration equipment; also makes fluorochemicals.
Sells air conditioners and heat pumps mostly through distributors and installers, and nearly all revenue is air conditioning, with the majority from outside Japan. The 2006 purchase of Malaysia's OYL, owner of McQuay, and the 2012 purchase of US maker Goodman made it global. Fluorochemicals, including the refrigerants it uses, are a small supplier business.
In one line: A global Carrier/Trane, but bigger in HVAC.
