DENSO cools off at Show with latest AC units

At the National Bus and Coach Show, DENSO was able to show off just how powerful its newest AC units are

With one of the most hands-on stands at the Show, DENSO was able to highlight to the market the power of its latest air-conditioning models.

After trekking to the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre in the heat, visiting the DENSO stand at the Show provided a breath of fresh air.

Making your way around the impressive display, you were hit with a gust of cold air from some of its newest air-conditioning/HVAC units, cooling you down and offering a try-before-you-buy type of experience.

DENSO business development manager Robert Smart told ABC this was all part of the plan.

“There’s nothing better than showing people exactly what they are in for,” Smart says.

“We are proud of our products and enjoy letting customers experience them first-hand.”

“The LD9 has been developed exclusively for Australia and New Zealand,” Smart says.

Years were spent perfecting the technology to make the unit as light and efficient as possible for manufacturers wanting to transition seamlessly into the electric market.

“Currently there is no competitor for the model and we received an overwhelmingly positive response from all who visited and saw it for the first time.”

The unit definitely stood out to attendees, with an influx of orders on the way for DENSO.

“Commitments were given to switch over to the new AC unit from a number of operators as it offers substantial savings in energy consumption,” he says.

DENSO plans to attend the next Show, and while Smart remained tight-lipped on future plans, he hinted at more models hitting the stands soon.

“We will have a number of new models by the time the show comes around,” he says.
