15 organisations were recognised for their work in advancing the adoption of natural refrigerants in Australia and New Zealand in the latest issue of Accelerate Australia and NZ.
The first issue of Accelerate Australia & NZ was published in autumn 2016. Across the nine issues of the magazine, we've sought to highlight the most important companies and organisations behind the adoption of natural-refrigerant technology in Australia.
The following are the 15 organisations that deserve recognition for their efforts to promote natural refrigerants, as Australia and New Zealand's HVAC&R industry takes steps to phase down HFCs in this new era.
This initial list covers not just 2018, but the years leading up to it as well.
Please note that we have not ranked the 15 organisations on the list. They are all considered of equal status, each in their own unique fashion.
The full story, with more information on each company's latest updates on progress with natural refrigerant systems and installations, features in the autumn 2018 issue of Accelerate Australia and NZ.
