RCR Infrastructure Wellington

Dive into how RCR in Wellington thrives

This month we’re taking a look inside the RCR Wellington branch to find out what they do, where they’ve been and what the future holds.

History

The Wellington office we know today has been through some changes over the years, originally starting as Heat Pump Engineering back in 1992. In 1999, the company was purchased by Tyco and we had a name change to Climatech, incorporating staff from New Power & Amp.

10 years later, there were more changes on the horizon as Norfolk Group took over Climatech and became Haden and O’Donnell Griffin. In 2015, Thompson Group purchased the company and the change to RCR Infrastructure began.

More recently, in 2019, Stonewood Group took over, changing the name to RCR NZ, making us 100% New Zealand owned. While there have certainly been some changes over the years, we’ve got some team members who have been through it all. Namely Dean Breedon who has been with the company for 28 years, as well as Rudi Ehle and Jon Medlin who have been with us for 20 years.

The Change of Office

After 28 years, we needed a new lease on life and began searching for a new home early in 2020. Unfortunately, Covid-19 struck just as we were getting ready to move, however, we pushed on and are now happily in our new location at 2 Union Street, Petone.

With brand new logos, signage and branding on our vehicles, the new location feels great, and we’re excited about the next chapter.

Who We Are

We’re a proud, family-oriented company with a focus on providing the best service possible. We’re a close-knit team, and we always go over and above for each other and also our customers.
