Vulcan Keeps Brose Running with Reliable HVAC Solutions

VMS Brose, HVAC Solutions for Commercial and Industrial Facilities, Vulcan Mechanical Services

Brose is a global automotive parts manufacturer with a reputation built on precision. Their facility supports production for multiple companies and their parts end up in vehicles around the world. In an environment like that, comfort and reliability matter just as much as output.

When Brose needed an HVAC partner that could keep pace with a high-performance operation, they turned to our team.

First Impressions Built on Expertise

Our relationship with Brose began in 2017. From the start, the expectation was clear: systems needed to run smoothly and issues needed to be handled fast. During an early walkthrough, we went up on the roof and inspected every machine on-site. Our technicians didn’t just look for obvious failures. They listened, evaluated performance and identified problems based on real experience.

In manufacturing, there’s no room for guesswork. Brose needed a partner that could diagnose issues quickly and accurately, especially across large equipment setups.

Training That Supports Long-Term Reliability

One of the turning points in the partnership came when Brose visited our facility. They saw something many HVAC providers don’t invest in: hands-on training environments built to develop real technical skill.

We train and qualify our people with working units, real equipment and practical troubleshooting. That investment matters because it leads to faster diagnostics, better repairs and fewer repeat issues. It also builds consistency across the technicians supporting a client’s facility.

Fast Response When It Counts

Brose’s team values quick response and dependable follow-through. When something needs attention, we show up ready. That includes identifying root causes, addressing the issue efficiently and keeping communication clear from start to finish.

Comfort in the plant is not just about temperature. It’s about supporting the people inside the building. Brose understands that happy employees build quality products, and reliable HVAC plays a direct role in that.

A Partner Brose Can Count On

This partnership has lasted for a reason. It’s built on expertise, responsiveness and a shared commitment to long-term performance.
