Rinaldo Facchini, CEO of the UFI Filters Group, says: “The increasing electrification of vehicles is leading us to focus more on this segment, which is why we have created a team dedicated to one of the key factors for electric vehicles: thermal management. I am pleased to entrust this job to Ivano Cordioli, who has long experience, and a proven track record at UFI Filters of bringing innovation directly to the OE customer.”

The UFI Filters Group has been present in the automotive OEM heat exchanger sector since 2010. In particular, investment in research and innovation has led to specialisation in the design, development and production of aluminium heat exchangers produced by vacuum brazing and water-cooling. This process allows for the obtainment of a more robust, efficient and clean product compared to traditional steel systems.

Today the UFI Group provides seven product lines dedicated to thermal management, covering the needs of all types of vehicles. They feature sophisticated products from the stand-alone or the integrated engine oil cooler (for combustion vehicles), the transmission oil cooler and liquid-cooled condenser (both for combustion, hybrid and electric vehicles), the battery chiller and coolant battery heater or the coolant flow valve (for hybrid and electric vehicles) up to the heat exchanger for e-axles for electric vehicles that can be supplied as single heat exchanger or as integrated module that reflects the company’s complete range of capabilities.

“I am extremely proud of this task and of the trust placed in me,” comments Ivano Cordioli, Thermal Management Business Unit Director. – “The new Business Unit will be able to count on a specialised and cross-functional team at our Innovation Center, so that we can better focus on the mobility technologies of the future. I am convinced that this motivated and highly skilled team will be able to give the right contribution and the best push to this sector both in terms of innovation and research and business development.”
