Mikuni Corporation and Eberspaecher Climate Control Systems have signed a joint venture agreement. Newly established Eberspaecher Mikuni Climate Control Systems Corporation headquartered in Odawara will distribute vehicle climate control systems in Japan.
Both suppliers have a 50% stake in the new company.

“The cooperative link-up is a win-win situation for both sides and, for Eberspaecher, an outstanding opportunity to position our innovative climate control products for buses, construction vehicles, motor homes and trucks even better in the Japanese market”, said COO Klaus Beetz.
The supplier already has a wholly-owned subsidiary in Nagoya (home to Toyota) which remains responsible for the sale and distribution of electric auxiliary heaters. Eberspaecher pre-heaters and climate control products will now be marketed from Odawara.
OEM and retrofit customers will benefit not from the Mikuni’s vehicle heater expertise and from the test centre based there, the JV partners said.
Mikuni’s nationwide dealer network will also retrofit and service Eberspaecher products.
