Tokyo, 16 August 2017: The 6^th ATMOsphere Japan conference will be held on 13 February 2018 in Tokyo, one day before Japan’s largest retail exhibition, the Supermarket Tradeshow.

With so many recent developments in the Japanese HVAC&R market, the 2018 ATMO Japan will be more relevant than ever.

The event will once again be the platform to discuss global and Japanese market trends in the HVAC&R sector with government representatives, end users, domestic and foreign manufacturers and other experts, offering great networking opportunities with key industry leaders.

“We are extremely excited about the upcoming ATMOsphere Japan. After the deregulation of CO₂, promising the return of subsidy schemes for retail and food manufacturing and improved awareness in general, the situation in the market has never been more promising for natural refrigerants,” said shecco Japan Managing Director Jan Dusek.

One of the conference’s most important topics will be the recent regulatory announcement by Japan’s High Pressure Safety Institute (KHK) regarding the reclassification of CO₂, which represents a monumental shift for CO₂ regulation in the country and opens the door to significantly wider adoption of larger CO₂ systems in commercial and industrial applications.

Other highlights of the programme include:

• Growing momentum for hydrocarbons in light commercial refrigeration;
• Ongoing growth of CO₂ transcritical systems in small stores;
• Growth of NH₃/ CO₂ and CO₂ transcritical systems in industrial applications, and;
• Update on subsidies from the Japanese government

“We look forward to working with domestic and global refrigeration experts and facilitating the exchange of know-how and ideas between Japan and the rest of the world. We are confident ATMOsphere Japan will play a key positive role and will contribute to doing more business with sustainable HVAC&R solutions in Japan,” said Dusek.

The event will take place in the Tokyo Conference Center Shinagawa, a flexible and innovative space that will help solidify ATMOsphere Japan as the business platform for everything natural refrigerants.
