Green refrigeration: Epta supports a review of the F-gas Regulation

The Group wants to contribute, at sustainable level and with increasing ambition, to the proposal to review the F-gas Regulation published by the European Commission on 5 April 2022.

The goal is to join forces and present proposals to Italian and international institutions, to make known the potential of the RACHP sector, its relevance on the economy of the Country and its green technologies.
