On November 4, 2025, Daikin Applied Americas Inc., the world’s number one air conditioning company, closed its acquisition of Chilldyne, Inc., an experienced leader in negative pressure liquid cooling systems for high-performance and AI data centers. Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati advised Chilldyne on the transaction.
Chilldyne’s patented liquid cooling distribution unit (CDU) technology uses a negative pressure system that delivers chip-level cooling while mitigating the risk of damaging leaks that plague traditional liquid cooling solutions. The system safely and efficiently removes heat directly from the processors through cold plates, ensuring systems can run the latest GPUs while preventing leaks, lowering costs, and protecting valuable assets.
“Joining Daikin Applied allows us to rapidly scale our second-generation liquid cooling ecosystem to enable global data center adoption,” said Dr. Steve Harrington, CEO of Chilldyne.
