The UK’s
refrigeration industry faces major challenges. While ozone depletion is
being addressed, the global warming battle is only just beginning. As
a big user of power, the cooling industry is in the spotlight in the
drive to reduce carbon emissions and tackle climate change. As well as
the need for improved energy performance, other environmental issues -
such as noise, refrigerants, containment recyclability and materials -
are driving change throughout the industry.
Continued
growth in the chilled food sector has provided good stimulus for the
refrigeration industry and the frozen food industry is now promoting
their benefits. Increased levels of food transport across Europe and
the UK are also evident, increasing demand for refrigerated
transport. These trends suggest major changes in the market over the
next few years, in terms of technical and product development and in
terms of market changes.
