Shecco rebrands as ATMOsphere

BELGIUM: Shecco, the Brussels-based “natural” refrigerant market development company, has changed its name to ATMOsphere. 

Founded in 2007, Shecco is active in market research and consultancy services, events management, industry platforms, and public affairs. The ATMOsphere name has previously been used as the brand name of a range of global conference events. 

“The global cooling market is experiencing significant disruption. Business-as-usual is no longer feasible,” said ATMOsphere founder and group CEO Marc Chasserot. “Investors, end users, and manufacturers need support to navigate this complex landscape. That is where ATMOsphere comes in.”
