Record-breaking Q1 secures significant order book in strong start to 2026

CambridgeHOK Refrigeration has enjoyed a record-breaking start to 2026 by securing a significant seven-figure order book during the opening quarter of the year.

The significant milestone marks one of the strongest periods of growth in the company’s history, having secured six new project wins spanning a diverse range of industries.

The work includes an energy research facility, the installation of HVAC and chiller systems at a packhouse in Lincolnshire and the development of a cold store facility for a major UK grower. In addition, we will also deliver a refrigeration system for a food production factory, further strengthening our footprint in the food manufacturing sector.

Alongside these new contracts, CambridgeHOK Refrigeration has also secured system upgrades for two existing clients, underlining their confidence in our technical expertise and service delivery.

The positive momentum has been further reinforced through the renewal of eight maintenance contracts with long-standing customers, further strengthening relationships with our current clients.

Welcoming the solid start and healthy order book, General Manager Hayley Jackson said: “This has been the most successful opening quarter I’ve experienced in my eight years in the industry. It’s a very encouraging start to the year and gives us real confidence moving forward.

“Seeing such a strong influx of orders is positive for the whole team and reflects the hard work and commitment they have shown, particularly towards the end of last year.

“We’re in a strong position to build on this momentum and continue growing throughout 2026, while remaining focused on delivering high-quality solutions for our customers.”
