ATMOsphere Japan is returning to Tokyo next year! 

After a successful first edition, ATMOsphere Japan is returning to Tokyo: a fast, influential and innovative city - on 13 February 2018, one day before Japan’s largest retail exhibition, the Supermarket Tradeshow.

ATMOsphere Japan 2018 will bring more opportunities to discuss global and Japanese market trends with government representatives, end users, domestic and foreign manufacturers and other experts, offering great networking opportunities with key industry leaders. 

With so many developments in the Japanese market over the past year - our conference content will be more relevant than ever - and will include:

• Growing momentum for hydrocarbons in light commercial refrigeration
• Ongoing growth of CO₂ transcritical systems in small stores
• Subsidies from the Japanese government 
• Growth of NH₃/CO₂ in industrial systems
• CO₂ transcritical systems in larger applications

One of the most important topics to be covered in the conference will be about Japan's recent regulatory announcement regarding CO₂ reclassification, signalling a monumental shift for CO₂ regulation in the country.

CO₂ systems to proliferate in Japan: What is expected now is that the new safety standards should make it easier for manufacturers to introduce larger CO₂ refrigeration systems to the market, creating more options for end users.

New venue 

Our new and exciting venue, Tokyo Conference Center Shinagawa, will allow us to welcome more attendees than ever before and help solidify ATMOsphere Japan as THE business platform for everything natural refrigerants!
