The European heat pump market, projected to grow at a steady annual rate of 20%, provides a strategic backdrop for this collaboration. Driven by the European Commission's heating electrification policies and the impending regulation on fluorinated gases (R290), a new generation of heat pumps is poised to emerge in the European market.

The fan solution, a synthesis of Panasonic's motor and SIT's optimized impeller and grille, is designed to meet the evolving demands of heat pump manufacturers. The heat pump fan offers a flexible solution to ensure optimal performance, minimal noise, and low energy consumption.

Gerhard Scharf, Division Manager at Panasonic Industry, expressed his enthusiasm: "We are proud to partner with SIT, sharing the goal of providing reliable, sustainable, and cutting-edge solutions. This collaboration demonstrates the alignment of Panasonic Industry's motor efficiency and durability with SIT's commitment to excellence."

SIT President and CEO Federico de Stefani on the collaboration with Panasonic Industry: "Entering the heat pump market is a milestone in SIT's growth plan. This partnership underscores our commitment to offering high-quality products. By integrating Panasonic Industry motors, we aim to provide the market with a best-in-class solution."
