In June 2026, Nunchi Climate Group became a limited company, marking an important step in our continued international growth and development.

Today, Nunchi Climate Group consists of the owner and four highly experienced technical consultants, bringing together more than 80 years of combined practical and theoretical experience within automotive air conditioning, heat pump systems, thermal management, diagnostics, service, repair, and technical training.

From specification to shelf

Every reference passes through the same route before a distributor ever sees it.

  1. 01

    Coverage analysis

    We identify the machines the market actually needs, led by the work workshops are taking in rather than convenience.

  2. 02

    Specification

    Each machine is specified before production begins, down to materials, tolerances and duty cycle.

  3. 03

    Manufacture

    Production is placed with European facilities working to the standards the specification demands.

  4. 04

    Verification

    Every function is validated before a machine is released into the catalogue.

  5. 05

    Distribution

    Stock is placed into our distribution network so the machine is available where and when it is needed.

The experts

The people behind the range, and the territories they look after.

Michael R. Ingvardsen

Director & CEO

I am a Danish automotive thermal management specialist, international technical trainer, consultant, and Owner of Nunchi Climate Group.

My specialist areas include Automotive Air Conditioning, Heat Pump systems, refrigerants, service equipment, components, chemicals, diagnostics, system flushing, and Thermal Management technologies for conventional, hybrid, and electric vehicles.

I work internationally with manufacturers, distributors, workshops, technical organizations, training organizations, and industry professionals to transform complex technologies into practical solutions. A central part of my work is helping the automotive industry prepare for the technological changes created by electrification, new refrigerants, environmental legislation, and increasingly sophisticated vehicle Thermal Management systems.

Technology only creates value when it can be understood and successfully used in practice.

Marcel van der Cruijsen

Sales & Technical Expert

Netherlands and Belgium (Benelux)

I have been working in automotive air conditioning since 1999. I started as a technician at my father's company and took over the business in 2004, a company that specialized primarily in everything related to cooling and heating in cars, trucks, and agricultural vehicles. In 2021, after 17.5 years, I sold my shares in the company and decided to pursue a different path.

In the years that followed, I began teaching training courses on air conditioning, which I combined with handling warranty claims for AC compressors and turbos as an independent contractor. During that time, I disassembled several thousand compressors to determine why they had failed.

Through everything I have done in the field of air conditioning, I have gained a tremendous amount of knowledge and experience, knowledge that I am happy to share in the training courses I teach.

Since 2025, I have been involved with a group of specialists in air conditioning and equipment at Nunchi Climate Group. This was an excellent opportunity for me to gain even more knowledge and share it with the rest of the world.

South-Eastern Europe

Victor Lissitchkov is an automotive A/C and thermal management specialist with more than 20 years of experience in the automotive aftermarket.

For over two decades he was a regional distributor for a leading European manufacturer of air-conditioning and engine-cooling parts, covering passenger cars, commercial vehicles and other vehicle applications. This long-term experience has given him extensive knowledge of automotive climate and cooling systems, aftermarket distribution, workshop requirements and technical service.

Since 2017, Victor has also been active as a technical trainer, delivering professional training in automotive A/C systems, cooling systems, diagnostics, troubleshooting and thermal management.

Today, as part of Nunchi Climate Group, his focus is on developing the South-Eastern European market for advanced automotive climate solutions, including next-generation refrigerants from Orbia, such as R-456A and R-444A, and professional A/C system flushing technologies from Tektino.

His work combines technical expertise, market experience and practical understanding of workshop needs, with a particular focus on the evolving requirements of ICE, hybrid and electric vehicles.

We built NunchiClimate because we believed the aftermarket deserved better — better quality, better coverage, and machines developed by people who truly understand how these systems work. That belief drives everything we do.
