Air Coil Shortage Hits Refrigeration Industry

The refrigeration industry is facing a major setback due to a widespread air coil shortage. Multiple factors, including supply chain disruptions, increased raw material costs, and growing demand from various sectors, have contributed to this critical situation. Manufacturers are struggling to meet the orders for air coils, which are essential components in commercial refrigerators, freezers, and cold storage facilities.

Food retailers and logistics companies relying on refrigeration systems are particularly affected, with some reporting delays in product storage and transportation. Industry associations are calling for government intervention to ease the supply chain bottlenecks and support domestic coil production. Meanwhile, companies are exploring alternative sourcing options and investing in local manufacturing to mitigate the impact of the shortage in the long term.
