About Us

Building on a tradition of engineering excellence dating back to 1957, AEC has been a leader in supplying the plastics industry with innovative solutions. AEC initially entered the market with chillers and cooling towers, establishing itself as a solutions provider for the most challenging process cooling needs.

Today, AEC continues to offer one of the broadest portfolios of packaged and central chillers, and has grown to be a leader in blending, drying, and conveying, serving a wide range of process industries.

Over the years, AEC has grown both organically through technical innovation and through acquisition. As new companies were added to the AEC portfolio, the breadth and depth of AEC’s capabilities in meeting the needs of industry continued to grow.
