About this event

NATURAL REFRIGERANTS FASTER TO EUROPE: Already for the third time, this international and interactive workshop on Natural Refrigerants will be organised in Brussels from Tuesday, 11 October to Wednesday, 12 October. This year the main focus will be on Europe: 180 policy and industry experts will come together to discuss strategies and concepts to bring natural refrigerants faster to Europe and beyond and also prove the business case for natural refrigerants. The ATMOsphere Europe 2011 programme will be a unique mix of European policy sessions, including the new F-Gas regulation and Ecodesign Directive and what it means for Natural Refrigerants as well as panel debates with European end-users (e.g. retailers, consumer brands) and 12 innovative technology case studies.

Besides enough time for networking during the 2 days, a reception and dinner will be organised for all participants on Tuesday night. To make ATMOsphere Europe a truly interactive event, moderated group discussions will accompany the sessions and networking meeting rooms will be available for individual meetings.
