Munters breaks ground on Data Center Technologies expansion in Virginia

Jul 11, 2025

Munters, a global leader in climate control solutions, is taking the next step in expanding its facility in Daleville, Virginia. A groundbreaking ceremony on July 9th marked a milestone in this initiative to meet growing demand for energy-efficient cooling of data centers.

The ceremony included participation from Munters Group leadership, local government officials, project team members and community partners in the ceremonial turning of the soil.

“The rapidly evolving demands of the data center industry push us to continuously advance our technology. By expanding our Virginia facility to include chiller production, we’re strengthening our ability to serve the US market and capture more of its growth offering a comprehensive portfolio of technical solutions,” says Stefan Aspman, President of the Data Center Technologies business area.

Botetourt County Administrator Gary Larrowe added, “This investment and job creation is a big deal- not just for Munters, but for the county as a whole."

Chillers are a foundational technology for cooling in many fields including data centers. Currently, production of complete chilled water solutions for both liquid and air cooling are manufactured in Italy through the acquired company Geoclima. With the new state-of-the-art facility in Virginia, set to be completed in Q2 2026, Munters is strengthening its regional supply, increasing capacity, and reducing lead times in the world´s largest and most strategically important data center market. 

The enlargement, which was first announced March 26, 2025, adds 200,000 square feet (18,580 m²) of production space to the adjacent lot of the current factory and includes a new test laboratory for chillers. In total, the new production facility will cover 565,000 square feet (52,000 m²).
