Industrial Product-Line Expansion Proposal
Turn thermal protection into a new industrial category for ARFIL.
ARFIL serves customers across construction, roadwork, forestry, fishing, mining and agriculture — sectors where workers face both summer heat and cold-season exposure. Vinmori can help ARFIL add a year-round worker thermal-management line alongside its existing machinery and parts business.
All-season opportunity12 MONTHS
Summer · Heat Stress
Cooling PPE & Workwear
Battery-free, passive and active cooling technologies matched to different industries and working conditions.
Winter · Cold Protection
Active Heated Workwear
Battery-powered heating platforms for outdoor crews, public works, agriculture, forestry and other cold-weather users.
One customer base.
Multiple thermal needs.
ARFIL’s cross-industry customer mix creates an advantage: the same thermal-management platform can be adapted to different jobs instead of relying on one universal product.
Construction & Roadwork
High exposure, long outdoor shifts
Durable, visible and easy-to-use cooling that fits public-works and construction PPE.
FIT: HybridCool · PCM · Heated Vest
Mining & Industrial
High thermal load, heavy PPE
Low airflow and demanding work cycles create stronger need for direct-contact active cooling.
FIT: Water Circulation · Peltier · PCM
Agriculture
Mobile, outdoor, cost-sensitive
Lightweight, easy-to-reactivate systems can support long field hours.
FIT: HybridCool · Evaporative · Heated Vest
Forestry
Mobility + protective layering
Cooling should remain compatible with movement, protective clothing and rugged outdoor use.
FIT: HybridCool · PCM · Active Heating
Fishing & Marine
Humidity, wind and seasonal cold
High humidity can limit evaporative cooling while cold wind creates all-season thermal needs.
FIT: PCM · Peltier · Heated Workwear
Government & Public Works
Standardised, tender-ready solutions
Public procurement benefits from clear specifications, repeatable SKUs and scalable supply.
FIT: High-Vis Cooling · Heated Vest · Standard Kits
Why this category fits ARFIL.
Thermal PPE is an adjacent industrial category sold to many of the same organisations already buying machinery, parts and equipment.
Opportunity 01
Sell more to existing accounts
Add worker thermal protection to customers already purchasing machinery, parts and industrial equipment.
Opportunity 02
Create year-round revenue
Summer cooling and winter heating reduce dependence on a single seasonal product window.
Opportunity 03
Enter PPE without building technology internally
Use Vinmori’s multi-technology platform as the engineering base while ARFIL owns local customer access.
Opportunity 04
Strengthen government bids
Add innovative worker-safety and heat-stress products to public-sector quotations and tender packages.
Opportunity 05
Differentiate from parts competitors
Move from pure component supply toward a broader worker productivity + protection proposition.
Opportunity 06
Develop an ARFIL-branded line
Start with proven models, then move into private-label or sector-specific products once demand is validated.
A modular thermal technology portfolio.
Different industries need different cooling intensity, runtime, mobility and price. Build the range in layers instead of forcing one technology across every customer.
Active Industrial Cooling
Water Circulation
Chilled water circulates through a tubing network to deliver strong contact cooling in high-heat industrial work.

*Reference performance varies with ambient temperature, humidity, airflow, garment construction, coverage and system configuration. Final specifications should be validated for the selected ARFIL pilot.
Designed for commercial and government channels.
Start with a small standard range, then expand into customised or tender-specific products as demand becomes clear.
Commercial Channel
A compact product line that existing industrial customers can understand and buy without a long education cycle.
✓Good / Better / Best cooling architecture
✓Summer + winter assortment
✓Private-label and ARFIL-branded options
✓Sector-specific sales materials and samples
Government / Tender Channel
Standardised products can be prepared around technical specifications, documentation, packaging and volume requirements.
✓Clear product specification sheets
✓High-visibility and public-works configurations
✓Certification / compliance planning by market
✓MOQ, delivery and bulk packaging support
A practical way to start.
There is no need to launch the entire portfolio at once. Start with the sectors where ARFIL has the strongest customer access and validate the response.
STEP 01
Select 2 sectors
Choose the customer groups with the strongest sales access or immediate heat/cold problem.
STEP 02
Build sample kit
Prepare 3–4 representative technologies covering entry, active and winter protection.
STEP 03
Customer / tender feedback
Test price, use case, comfort, specifications and procurement requirements.
STEP 04
Create ARFIL range
Turn the strongest concepts into repeatable SKUs, private-label products or tender-ready solutions.
Which ARFIL customer segment should we build for first?
Construction, mining, agriculture, forestry, fishing or government/public works — we can configure a small thermal PPE sample portfolio around the customers you already serve.
