3CL in short

3CL is a Telford design-and-build contractor for industrial refrigeration and air conditioning, working from its own office and factory. Design, manufacture, installation and maintenance come from the one firm under an audited quality system, with a team of around thirty and full-time safety cover. If you buy cooling for a factory or food site, this is the outfit shaped for it.

The record shows design, manufacture, installation and maintenance of bespoke refrigeration and air conditioning plant from a Stafford Park office and factory in Telford [1]. The team runs to around thirty with full-time safety cover under an audited quality system, and enquiries run through the company profile with phone and base published.

Customer reviews are spotless but tiny: five stars on Google from three ratings. The audited quality system is the strongest evidence on the page. That base is too small to judge by, so the audited quality system and the factory setup do the talking here. Project references matter more than stars at this size. The factory setup sets it apart from install-only firms. This review cannot lean on prices, paperwork or history beyond those headline figures.

No F-Gas certification statement, no prices, no insurance details and no company record appear on the pages checked, so 3CL sits outside our ranked table. It suits only direct enquiries where the paperwork is requested first.

Our verdict

What counts against it is the missing trade paperwork: no F-Gas statement, no prices and no company record on the company profile, so it does not meet our registration requirement [1].

Is 3CL any good?
