Daikin Holdings Singapore Pte. Ltd has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Delta Electronics to collaborate on next‑generation Coolant Distribution Unit (CDU) solutions for AI and High‑Performance Computing (HPC) data centres across the ASEAN‑Oceania region.
The strategic partnership brings together Daikin’s century‑long leadership in facility‑level cooling and thermal management with Delta’s advanced expertise in server‑side liquid cooling and CDU technologies.
Together, the companies aim to deliver an integrated, end‑to‑end data centre cooling ecosystem capable of supporting rack power densities ranging from 100kW to 3000kW, featuring Delta Fans and Thermal Business Group’s extensive In-Rack and In-Row CDU portfolios, including the latest highly scalable and modular stack-up CDU series.
Highlighting the significance of the collaboration, Junichi Omori, executive officer and general manager of the global operation division, Daikin Industries Ltd., noted that the partnership aligns two companies with shared values in innovation, sustainability, and reliability.
“By combining Daikin’s strength in data centre grey-space cooling with Delta’s white-space and chip-level expertise, the collaboration enables holistic thermal management solutions spanning from facility‑level infrastructure down to servers and chips,” Omori said.
Jimmy Yiin, executive vice president of global business operations, Delta Electronics, emphasised the execution‑driven nature of the partnership.
“The focus is clear—to turn alignment into execution. This collaboration is not about what has already been achieved, but about what we will build together through speed, integration, and disciplined execution,” he said.
The MOU reflects a shared commitment by Daikin and Delta to accelerate the adoption of liquid cooling technologies and support more efficient, resilient, and sustainable data centre infrastructure to meet the growing demands of AI‑driven workloads.
Both companies expressed confidence in building a successful collaboration model in the ASEAN‑Oceania region, with potential for global expansion at scale.
