Called the Virtual Trade Show (VTS), the event enabled thousands of cooling industry professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic to connect live with 77 suppliers and promoters of natural refrigerant products and view live webinars in an unprecedented global online format.
Natural refrigerants – carbon dioxide, hydrocarbons, ammonia, water and air – are being used in refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump systems around the world as substitutes for fluorinated refrigerants that harm the environment.
“We made history in the cooling industry with an event that for the first time connected stakeholders around the world over a 24-hour period to learn about the latest natural refrigerant systems,” said Marc Chasserot, CEO of shecco.
