Top names on NACRA shortlist

UK: A number of well-known names feature amongst the finalists just announced for the National Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Awards (NACRA).

Fresh from its success at the ACR News Awards, Surrey-based contractor Borahurst has again been shortlisted for the top contractor award. However, they face strong competition from Space Engineering Services and the RACA Group.

A large number of companies will vie for refrigeration and air conditioning product awards and the wholesaler/distributor category looks to be well contested between Cool Designs, Hawco, Space Air Conditioning, TF Solutions and UR Refrigeration Wholesale.

Amongst the project awards shortlisted are ThermaCom & ThermOzone for its chiller replacement at the National Maritime Museum, Mitsubishi Electric and distributor ACS for its R22 air conditioning replacement at Connells estate agents and Carter Synergy for its work with Walgreens.

The full list of shortlisted companies and details of the awards can be found here.
