CONTENTS From the editor W


elcome to the April issue of ACR News.


This month sees the return


of HVACR live – check out the seminar programme on page 16 and make sure you register to attend.


The ACR News Awards shortlist is on page 14 and it’s not too late to book your seat if you haven’t done so already.


In this issue, Rob Luddington of Humidity Solutions explains why it’s important to consider the whole system throughout its life to maximise results and ROI.


Lee Hermitage of Honeywell Advanced Materials talks to us about the role HFO’s are playing and the broader impact they can still have, and Lewis Bourne, founder of Genfrost UK and Lucabo International talks about developments in chilled grocery retailing and his reasons for investing in new generation refrigerated displays.


I hope you find this issue informative and interesting,


Lynn Sencicle Managing Editor
