In the beginning...

Brilliant foresight lies behind the successful outcome of the launch of an air conditioning company, which some sceptics might have regarded as geographically misplaced. By 1985 air conditioning was hardly a new concept. And any doubts that the climatically-challenged North East might not be ready to join the international boom proved groundless.

What began with just one air conditioning engineer, at Broompark, near Durham City, over 30 years ago, has steadily grown into an operation with a 50-strong workforce. Our skills are in demand regionally and nationally, with even Europe featuring in the firm's bulging contract portfolio.

Managing Director Alan Unsworth fully understands how their success might not have been anticipated in some quarters. Although 30 years ago it wasn't possible to clearly see how the North East's economy was going to be re-shaped during the approach to the 21st century, it was obvious the region was no longer going to be a major centre for coal, shipbuilding and other heavy industries.

“We looked set for more diversity in future with an accent on new technology-based and service business—which certainly would require the pleasant environmental conditions created by air conditioning.”

Hadrian Marches On

Victims of our own success, we outgrew our premises once again to take up residence in Hadrian House, Washington.

After only seven years at Rosse Close, Hadrian Air have found it necessary to move premises once again. Victims of their own success, the North's leading air conditioning contractors have once again outgrown their premises. This latest move sees the company take up residence in Hadrian House — a purpose designed unit at Crowther Industrial Estate, Washington. The new building affords some 8,000 square feet of office and warehousing space over two floors.
