Heating, Cooling and Ventilation Equipment Manufacturing in New Zealand industry analysis

Companies in the Heating, Cooling and Ventilation Equipment Manufacturing industry have experienced a rebound in demand over recent years, following poor performance over the course of the COVID-19 pandemic. The manufacturers' performance has been supported by heightened demand from offices and commercial buildings, as well as multi-unit apartment complex construction. Despite strong performance, businesses have been threatened by escalating import competition as imported substitutes from Asia are pushing domestic manufacturers to drop their prices. Overall, revenue has climbed by an annualised 3.9% over the past five years, to total $364.8 million. This trend includes a rise of 1.0% in 2024-25, prompted by heightened business confidence.

Trends and Insights

  • Revenue has recovered from the lows of the COVID-19 pandemic, driven by growth in major markets and the wider economy. Profit margins have normalised thanks to heightened demand and easing cost pressure.
  • Increased demand for energy-efficient heating systems has benefited manufacturers that specialise in climate-friendly options. Yet, clients are increasingly opting for imported alternatives rather than locally manufactured heaters.
  • Manufacturers need access to a steady labour supply. This means that most establishments are located in major population centres, like Auckland or Christchurch.
  • Import competition for local manufacturers is growing. Imported substitutes from Asia threaten the viability of the local industry. Countries in Asia have lower operating costs and access to larger markets, which drives down per-unit costs.
