At Lyra, we’re a committed team of experts in what we do. 

We’re a relatively small team, and that’s deliberate. We want to remain closely-knit, so that we continue to communicate well, and everybody can find the information they need to help our clients quickly and effectively. 
Our engineers are the best in the business when it comes to natural refrigeration systems. We have access to a suite of resources from our PhD qualified consultants to our dedicated and knowledgeable delivery partners. This enables Lyra to turnkey deliver even the most discerning complex projects. 
 
When you work with us, you get a dedicated team. We learn about your business, your objectives, and your long-term strategy, so that we can help you make the best-informed decisions about your project. With our internal database of the assets we’ve installed in your business, we can always find the quickest solution to any problems you’re facing to keep your production running smoothly. 
At Lyra we pride ourselves on being transparent, working hard, and being hands-on people who understand your business. 

Transparency 

A cohesive solution to your problems... 
We ensure equipment and services selected are optimised for transparent scrutiny in regards to their application and/or return on investment. Lyra are your go to independent industrial refrigeration specialist who will work with you through conception to completion. Our business culture of working transparently is shown through the customer roadmap and ensures we always work in your best interest at all times. 
 
Our working practices are driven through our supply chain with strict guidance around sustainability, cost and quality. 

Hard work 

Sometimes diagnosing a problem takes patience, time, and meticulous investigation. 
We’re not afraid of hard work and we go the extra mile to make sure your refrigeration is robust, and working exactly as it should be. If you need us out-of-hours, we’re happy to help. 

Hands-on 

Most companies use a call centre for out-of-hours engineers, and they have account managers to carry out their client relationships. 
That’s not our ethos. We operate everything internally so that everybody is in the know. You will always deal with a member of our own knowledgeable team.
