Beijer Ref to host interactive event

UK: Beijer Ref is to hold its own Sustainability Show in Leeds next month, featuring interactive product demonstrations and in-depth presentations.

The event on March 22 at the Village Hotel Leeds South promises a different format to traditional events, with a focus in the morning on interactive product demonstrations of the very latest sustainable products followed by in depth presentations on six key subjects. Breakfast and a buffet lunch are provided.

The refrigeration wholesaler will also be launching a unit which converts any fridge or air conditioning system into an air-to-water heat pump even in the off cycle. Beijer Ref says that this innovative addition to traditional systems is generating excellent returns on the initial investment and ideal for users looking to reduce energy costs.
