World Refrigeration Day is a benchmark day in the refrigeration and air-conditioning industry, designed to draw attention to their importance in daily life and to offer efficient solutions for making society’s everyday affairs simpler and more comfortable.
This year, its fourth edition, with the slogan “COOLING MATTERS!” the aim is to raise awareness of how important refrigeration is to society, for which it has become an essential industry, through the acquisition of social commitment and best practices, and in which sustainability plays a major role.
The significant contribution of cooling technologies to society’s welfare is the reason for this meeting of different industry associations, companies and professionals, who wish to keep up to date with the latest trends both in technological innovation and in new sustainability techniques.
Hispacold is therefore a sponsor of the event organized by AEFYT, AFAR and AFEC. Following on from the success of the three previous editions, this year an online event will be held on June 26 to bring together representatives from the entire refrigeration and air-conditioning industry, which are sectors with a strong commitment to environmental sustainability.
Since its inception, Hispacold has demonstrated its concern for global warming and its commitment to environmental sustainability. Since 2006, its work in RDI has been focused on the development of systems compatible with alternative refrigerants with lower GWP indexes (natural gas, HFO + HFC blends with lower GWP indexes) and on the development of systems that require a lower gas charge. Its air-conditioning systems are designed to work with R134a and R513A, and drastically reduce their refrigerant charge, which in turn means a significantly lower environmental impact.
