A-Gas Americas MD Armstrong joins REEF board

USA: A-Gas Americas MD Mike Armstrong has joined the board of the Refrigerant Emissions Elimination Forum (REEF), the US group seeking to accelerate action on refrigerants and climate-friendly cooling technologies.

Formed in 2023, REEF is a growing non-profit dedicated to education, engagement, and empowerment. REEF is building a movement to elevate refrigerant lifecycle management as a critical climate solution. 

Led by a volunteer network with expertise in refrigerants, energy systems, and corporate sustainability, REEF believes corporate leadership has a unique opportunity to accelerate action where policy and infrastructure alone have fallen short. 

“I am excited to collaborate with REEF, as this partnership will further amplify our efforts to build a sustainable future through innovative refrigerant management practices,” said Mike Armstrong.
