In his presentation, Steven Cousins, Equipment Quality Manager for The Coca-Cola Company, highlights the successful employment of 1.1 million CO2 and HC coolers worldwide accounting for approximately 8% of the entire fleet. Having set the ambitious goal of phasing-out HFC equipment in 2009, Coca-Cola has since certified 162 vending machine models, 38 of these meant for high temperature environments. As of June 2014, 12,354 CO2 cabinets have been placed in North America.
