Why RDC

Experience you can hear on the phone.

International standards

We only partner with factories like Arcaboa, Gonfrio and the Mafirol group that meet our specs.

After-sales, actually

Registered service agents across Southern Africa — and a team that answers the phone.

Energy-conscious

Modern compressors, LED lighting and remote refrigeration to bring running costs down.

One team, whole project

Consultation, supply, install and support all handled in-house — no finger-pointing.

Meet the team

The people you'll actually deal with.

RDC has stayed family-run on purpose. The same people who quote your job are the ones you'll phone at 6am when a compressor trips — and they'll answer.
