Our history

In 2010 Dairei Europe changed name into Arctiko to mark the change of ownership : Mr. Lars Ole Jensen became 100% owner of the company.

Dairei Europe A/S was founded in February 2002 with Nihon Freezer, Dairei Co. Ltd. Japan and Mr. Lars Ole Jensen as managing director.

Mr. Jensen had the opportunity to found Dairei Europe A/S through his prior connections and global sales experience. He started working from his home until he moved into a small office in Esbjerg City.

In 2004 Mr. Jensen hired two employees to help him with the fast growing business producing high performance cooling products for the laboratory and medical segment worldwide.

In 2005 the company moved to bigger facilities in Esbjerg. This step gave the opportunity to have stock and office in same place. On that time the company counted 6 employees.

In 2007 the company moved again into to bigger premises in the industrial area of Esbjerg due to the need of larger office, stock facilities and workshop. This was due to the tremendous growth since the start and in early 2008 the office area was expanded with meeting room and lager office area.

Another huge step was also done in late 2007 when Dairei was becoming ISO 9001 certified.

In 2010 the name of the company changed into Arctiko and we now have 16 employees and factories in both Denmark, Europe and Asia.
