"The savings in energy costs are enormous. Compared to a conventional cooling , we are at 70% savings."

2008, the beginning of a beautiful partnership
In 2008, Bioclimas pushes the door of a store of the sign and two observations are immediately made:
Following these findings, the conclusion was simple: installing a Bioclimas system would be a real added value for the store.
Why is this so? Surprising as it may seem, and unlike cooling , poor building insulation is not a problem for Bioclimas, for one simple reason. The cooling adiabatic system injects large quantities of air, which must then be evacuated via an extractor fan or by leaving the windows open. Based on this principle, a poorly insulated or poorly insulated building that allows air to pass through is not a problem, since it offers a way out.
Thanks to the adiabatic system, the air is permanently cooled and replaced several times an hour by fresher, healthier and odor-free air.
But beyond its efficiency, Seeley International's technology offers a cooling solution that is nearly three times less expensive than the competition and consumes up to 90% less electricity. A real financial saving that weighs heavily in the balance for all these independent store owners.
In 2008, 3 stores were equipped with our products: Hyon, Jette and Alsemberg. 15 years later, 30 stores all over Belgium will benefit from this installation.
In short, Bioclimas has been able to provide an economical solution adapted to the needs of the Tom&Co brand while following its environmental commitment. The return on investment of an installation is now barely 2 years and each offer is customized to the building.
Our solutions have been a revolution for Tom&Co, as Mrs. Lena Lemodetis, owner of three Tom&Co stores, tells us: "I have never had such a reliable product. I've had the machines installed for 15 years now and I've never had to call Bioclimas to tell them that something was wrong.
In short, Tom&Co is :
