Tesco chooses Solstice N40 for 900 Thai stores

29/8/2017

 
Tesco Thailand Honeywell Solstice refrigerant
Thai retailer Tesco Lotus is converting 900 Express stores to Honeywell’s Solstice N40 refrigerant to reduce carbon emissions. It is the first implementation in Asia of Solstice N40, the  non-flammable replacement for R404A in the supermarket industry.

Tesco Group — the global parent company of Tesco Lotus in Thailand — is upgrading its supermarket refrigeration systems worldwide to lower-GWP refrigerants as part of its commitment to reduce its carbon footprint. By converting all of its 1,500 Express stores in Thailand over the next two years to Solstice N40 (R448A), the retail giant aims to achieve energy savings of up to 10%. This is equivalent to removing more than 67,000 cars from the road.

The Air Conditoning and Refrigeration European Association (AREA), which represents air conditioning, refrigeration and heat pump contractors across Europe and beyond, has welcomed two new member associations. AEFYT from Spain and TRA from Thailand joined at the spring  2017 General Assembly in Amsterdam.

AEFYT is the Spanish association representing companies in the cooling and refrigeration industry, including contractors. After an introductory meeting at the end of 2016, they had been granted temporary membership by the Board from  January onwards.

AEFYT President Roberto Solsona Caballer said: “AREA and AEFYT share common interests and objectives such as cohesion, collaboration, distribution of information and contact between national and international associations to achieve the development of refrigeration techniques and professional certifications.”

Fujitsu Opens Thai Office to Meet Growing Aircon Demand

25/4/2016

 
Fujitsu Thailand
To meet growing demand for air conditioning from a rising middle class population in Thailand Fujitsu has opened a local office, the company announced recently.

The Japanese company had relied on a local distributor to manage its business in Thailand. But, the increasing economic power of the population in the country, and the 'Energy Labelling' system meant that Fujitsu decided to open its own sales and service office to develop its market share.
​The energy labelling laws mean that customers demand the most efficient air conditioning systems. Inverter models have been popular products. The Thai air conditioning market is around 1.2 million air conditioning units a year, according to the 2014 figures from the Japan Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Industry Association. Thailand is the second biggest market in the south east Asian region.

Fujitsu released its well-mounted air conditioning system into the market in April, which the company expects to be its best selling model.
