Engineered for absolute sealing efficiency and reliable pressure regulation in refrigeration environments across Kenya.
Kenya is currently experiencing a massive transformation in its industrial and agricultural cold chains. As the economic hub of East Africa, cities like Nairobi, Mombasa, Kisumu, and Nakuru are seeing a rapid expansion of modern supermarket chains, commercial distribution centers, and horticultural export facilities. Kenya’s flower and fresh produce exports rely heavily on sophisticated, uninterrupted cooling systems. In this context, Can Tap Valves and moisture protection parts like copper filter driers are vital components.
The transition toward green refrigerants (such as R134a, R410a, and R600a hydrocarbon systems) has triggered a high demand for high-quality charging tools. Poorly made can tap valves cause refrigerant leaks, which damage systems, increase costs, and harm the environment. As a leading manufacturer, Ningbo Taojun offers the Kenyan market leak-proof, highly durable charging solutions that comply with international environmental rules.
Founded in 1988, Ningbo Taojun Refrigeration Equipment Co., Ltd. is located in the scenic coastal city of Ningbo, China. Our predecessor was the prestigious Xiangshan Refrigeration Accessories Factory of Zhejiang University, giving us deep academic and technological roots in fluid dynamics and thermal engineering. Over 30 years of development, we have grown into a national high-tech enterprise that integrates design, R&D, manufacturing, and global sales.
We manufacture copper filter driers, stop valves, air conditioning valves, wire-tube condensers, and brass accessories. By combining modern management with strict engineering standards, our "Lingshan" brand is highly regarded in the domestic and global refrigeration markets. We hold ISO9001:2015, EU RoHS, and US UL certifications, which guarantees every batch of components meets international specifications.
We specialize in manufacturing parts that prevent system failure and extend the life of compressors in harsh operational environments.
Our filter driers use high-purity copper shells and premium 3A molecular sieves. They efficiently absorb moisture and acids, filtering out impurities that can cause capillary blockage and premature compressor failure.
Designed for puncture accuracy and absolute zero-leak connection. These tools allow field service engineers to open refrigerant cans cleanly and charge residential or commercial systems without wasting expensive gases.
We offer full OEM and ODM services. We produce custom-extruded copper connectors, customized wire-tube condensers, and complete charging accessories that fit your specific systems perfectly.
Our commitment to quality ensures that our products function reliably in high ambient temperatures, such as those found in East Africa.
Our core production machinery is imported from Germany. By using automated CNC machining centers and advanced argon arc welding equipment, we guarantee uniform joints and pressure resistance across our product line.
Our engineering center employs 15 specialized engineers, including doctors and professors from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC). This team keeps us at the forefront of thermodynamic design.
We test our products in extreme environments. We perform high/low temperature tests (75°C to -35°C for 500 hours), thermal shock cycles, and high-voltage breakdown checks to ensure our products are completely leak-free before shipping.
Since 1988, we have focused on modernizing our workshops and improving product quality.
Established as Xiangshan Refrigeration Accessories Factory of Zhejiang University. We focused on localizing thermodynamic components.
Expanded our facilities and constructed a new production plant. We introduced specialized stamping and copper extrusion machinery.
Implemented our MES intelligent workshop management system. This system allows us to track manufacturing quality from raw materials to final products.
Upgraded our automated assembly lines with CCD visual inspection systems. This technology helps us achieve higher accuracy and reduce defect rates.
We partner with global HVAC brands and comply with regional import regulations, including Kenya's PVoC standards.

We understand that importing HVAC/R components into East Africa requires compliance with Kenya Bureau of Standards (KEBS) regulations under the Pre-Export Verification of Conformity (PVoC) program. Our components are fully certified for trace elements and material safety. We guarantee that all copper components are made of pure, non-recycled copper. This prevents corrosion and leaks, ensuring long-term reliability in Kenya's humid coastal regions and high-altitude agricultural hubs.
Select from our certified range of filter driers, condenser assemblies, brazing alloys, and structural mountings.
As international environmental regulations tighten, the refrigeration industry is moving toward high-pressure, zero-ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and low-GWP (Global Warming Potential) natural refrigerants. CO2 (R744) and hydrocarbon refrigerants like Propane (R290) operate under higher pressures and thermal loads than older systems. This shift requires stronger, more durable components.
Taojun Refrigeration is developing next-generation components to support this transition. We are designing ultra-high pressure can tap valves and reinforced copper filter driers that can handle pressures over 60 bar. Additionally, our R&D team is testing composite desiccants that absorb moisture faster while preventing chemical breakdown when used with new synthetic oils. By supplying these components, we help our partners in Kenya and globally build future-proof, environmentally friendly cooling systems.
