At the ASERCOM Convention, there was intensive discussion about the future shape of the industry. In view of the F-Gas revision and the impending ban on the “Forever Chemicals” of the PFAS group of substances, there was much uncertainty about the future framework conditions of the HVAC&R industry. Many questions could be discussed in direct exchange during the panel discussion with Bente Tranholm-Schwarz (DG Clima) and Frauke Averbeck (BAuA).
