While early drafts included bans on the use of
HFCs in a number of sectors, including commercial refrigeration, some European countries are trying to water this down.
These
HFCs are currently used
in a
number of industry
sectors, including various refrigeration applications from smaller equipment like household refrigerators and vending machines, to chillers and other large systems used
in supermarkets, cold food storage warehouses, and food processing, as well as fire suppression systems.
