ATMOsphere Europe returns on 16 & 17 March 2015 for its 6th edition in Brussels, Belgium. Over 200 participants are expected to attend, making this the largest ATMOsphere event ever organised in Europe. The event is supported by Platinum Sponsor Carrier and Gold Sponsors Mayekawa, Advansor, Epta and Sanden.
With its proven formula of end user & supplier panels, policy & market trends sessions, case studies, workshops and unparalleled networking opportunities, the event will once again serve as the meeting place for HVAC&R industry experts to discuss the latest natural refrigerant market trends, regulatory issues and technology developments in Europe.
Policy session to look at practical implementation of new EU F-Gas Regulation

Speakers from the European Commission, the French Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development & Energy, the Danish Environmental Protection Agency, the German Federal Environment Agency, the European association of refrigeration, air conditioning and heat pump contractors (AREA) and Carrier will discuss the new regulation and what it means for the industry. Looking beyond Europe, a Global Policy Session will provide updates from around the world with speakers from the European Commission, Environment Canada, the Environmental Investigation Agency (EIA) and the Japanese Ministry of the Environment (MOE).
