SMART ENERGY INFRASTRUCTURES AND ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS FOR THE INDUSTRIAL FUTURE
The PC Hetz Group provides multisystem, comprehensive industrial engineering solutions across the energy, food and water sectors. CEO Yossi Matityahu describes how long-term partnerships with leading international companies, advanced CO₂ technologies and fully customized production enable the Group to deliver reliable, future-ready infrastructure to Israeli industry

From planning, engineering and design through custom manufacturing, import and distribution, to long-term service, maintenance and smart monitoring, the PC Hetz Group delivers genuine end-to-end solutions. Expertise is concentrated in four complementary divisions: PC Hetz for custom-made industrial production, Sense Energy Control, Optiguide for humidity control and the Alfa Laval Division for food, water and energy.
Operations are based in the Holon industrial zone, where the Group's factory produces fully customized, Israeli-made industrial cooling and HVAC systems adjacent to its offices and service center. A substantial portion of production is exported to over 30 countries worldwide.
A Multi‑Technology Group Built on Global Partnerships
Founded roughly 30 years ago as a small office representing international companies in Israel, PC Hetz has grown into a multisystem solutions provider. At the core of its operations are strategic partnerships with global technology leaders such as TEKO, Siemens, CAREL, Copeland, Panasonic, Hussmann, S&S, Güntner, Rosenberg, Alfa Laval and others. These alliances ensure customers in Israel have access to reliable, proven solutions supported by local engineering, in‑house service and field teams who understand operational challenges in real conditions.
Shifting to Natural Refrigerants: CO₂ as a Standard
The commercial and industrial refrigeration sector is undergoing a fundamental shift driven by international regulation including the Kigali Amendment and European F‑Gas directives. Synthetic refrigerants are being phased down worldwide, while natural refrigerants such as CO₂ and ammonia are gaining momentum as efficient, low‑impact alternatives.
CO₂ (R‑744) has become one of the most important solutions for supermarkets, cold‑storage facilities, logistics centers and food production plants. It is non‑toxic, non‑flammable and supports high energy efficiency when engineered correctly. As one of the few companies in Israel capable of supporting a complete CO₂ solution from design to commissioning and service, PC Hetz selected TEKO — one of the world's leading CO₂ refrigeration manufacturers — as a strategic partner.
Global Technology with Local Adaptation
"All the international brands we represent are established and recognized," says Matityahu. "When customers choose equipment for wastewater treatment, energy optimization or food‑industry cooling, they know they are getting technology with decades of experience behind it — together with local adaptation that ensures functionality in the Israeli market."
PC Hetz engineers and product managers regularly participate in professional training overseas and visit manufacturing facilities to deeply familiarize themselves with emerging solutions. This knowledge is then adapted to a smaller, highly dynamic and demanding market like Israel.
End‑to‑End Execution Under One Roof
A defining characteristic of the Group is its centralized engineering ecosystem. Each domain — wastewater treatment, industrial cooling, control systems, energy efficiency or spare‑parts logistics — is led by a dedicated product manager. Around this function, manufacturing, project supply, financing solutions, logistics, service and support are combined into a single process that follows the project throughout its life cycle.
Inventory includes roughly 20,000 stocked items ranging from heat exchangers and fans to industrial valves, controllers, compressors and original spare parts. Service vehicles are dispatched daily nationwide, ensuring continuity for facilities operating 24/7.
Energy Efficiency, Smart Control and IoT
Innovation at PC Hetz focuses strongly on energy transparency and data‑driven decision making. Electronic motors, EC fans, advanced control systems and remote monitoring are included from the earliest stages of project planning. This enables plants to analyze consumption patterns, reduce emissions and improve operational stability.
Two large‑scale examples demonstrate this approach:
• In southern Israel, the company is preparing to lead a conversion project replacing conventional steam boilers at a major industrial plant with new, energy‑efficient systems in response to Ministry of Environmental Protection requirements.
• In the north, PC Hetz is awaiting approval for a unique wastewater treatment solution that will allow a power plant to locally treat water used to cool its turbines — significantly reducing transport costs and environmental impact.
Engineering Collaboration and Customized Projects
Close collaboration with engineering offices is a daily element of operations. The Group provides planning materials such as 3D models, performance tables, design parameters and technical specifications. This ensures confidence in the planning stages and supports successful execution and commissioning.
Examples include fully customized solutions for refrigerated warehouses, pharmaceutical facilities, municipal wastewater systems and food production plants — from the conceptual stage through manufacturing and installation.
Training and Knowledge Transfer: The PC Hetz Academy
To support industry growth, the Group operates a dedicated training classroom at its Holon offices where regular seminars are held for engineers, planners, operators and technicians. These sessions focus on topics such as CO₂ systems, industrial energy management and wastewater treatment technologies, accompanied by dedicated learning materials and hands‑on guidance.
Growth, Market Trends and Looking Ahead
Driven by natural refrigerant technology, industrial energy efficiency and advanced wastewater management solutions, PC Hetz projects that current initiatives may double the company's turnover within the next three years. As a mid‑market group, its advantage lies in combining local manufacturing, global representation and smart control into a single multisystem solution under one roof — delivering long‑term stability and peace of mind to customers across Israel.
Human Capital
The PC Hetz Group employs more than 100 people, including engineers, engineering technicians, production staff, logistics and service personnel. Employee retention is exceptionally high, with many staff members in the company for decades. New professional recruitment initiatives are underway, including training workers from India to join the growing engineering workforce.
