Wine chiller rental
Wine chiller rental
POLYPOLES has specialized in wine chiller rental since 2005. At that time, we rented over fifteen chillers for the Vinexpo world event. Since then, our contracts have been renewed every 2 years. Also, as our head office is located in Bordeaux, a renowned wine-making region (Saint Emilion, Médoc, Saint Estèphe, Margaux…), the châteaux have called on Polypoles for chillers to help them make their wine, particularly to optimize malolactic fermentation. Our fleet has now grown to over 100 units. Our expertise and the fact that our agencies are located close to wine-producing regions is well recognized in the French wine-producing market (Alsace, Burgundy, Côtes du Rhône, etc.).
If you need to rent a wine chiller, our specialized technicians are here to help.
Rent your equipment and save!
Choosing to rent a chiller during the wine-making process means you don’t have to invest in an expensive installation. This solution has many positive points
- No investment
- No depreciation to be taken into account
- No machine storage (saves space)
- No overhaul, maintenance or upkeep at your expense
- Equipment replacement in case of breakdown
- Modularity in the choice of equipment (possibility of upgrading your solution).
Why rent a wine chiller?
The wine-making chiller has become an essential part of the process of producing quality wines. They help you cope with temperature constraints and accompany you through the various stages of winemaking:
- When processing the harvest
- During the various stages of alcoholic and malolactic fermentation, as well as tartaric stability and precipitation.
We have extensive experience of cooling loops in the wine industry (our head office is in Bordeaux). As a result, our entire fleet in the Gironde region is reserved year after year for the grape harvest. Our rental services are particularly interesting for occasional use or when your fixed equipment breaks down.

How does a chiller work?
This is a refrigeration unit designed to produce chilled water for various applications. The unit is a monoblock unit with a compressor refrigeration circuit comprising :
- An evaporator, either embedded in a tank or with a plate, which produces the cold
- A condenser, usually air-cooled
The water circulating in the chiller is generally connected to a closed loop. In this way, the frigories (=negative calories) are conveyed by the water, which has a very high heat mass. Note that chillers are now often reversible (heat pump), so it’s also possible to produce hot water on demand. The chiller has the advantage of producing both cold and hot water (air-conditioning and heating) with a single machine. It is also an advantage in terms of environmental impact and energy savings, as reversible units consume just 1 kWh of electricity to produce around 3 kWh of heating. POLYPOLES is a specialist in chillers (cooling only or reversible) in the 3 to 120 kW power range. We also have a network of partners for larger capacities
