Secop is committed to a more sustainable, cooled world and proudly supports World Refrigeration Day! As one of the founding fathers of modern compressor technology, Secop brings experience that dates back to the early 1950s. Secop is a specialist in advanced refrigeration compressor technologies and cooling solutions for commercial refrigeration. Our hermetic compressors are at the very heart of refrigeration units.
We often take the importance of refrigeration for granted, yet its impact on everyday life is profound. Refrigeration keeps food fresh from the countryside and beverages cool in our homes. It ensures food safety and allows us to enjoy a wide variety of food and drinks.
But let’s not forget its other vital applications, such as the storage of vaccines and blood. Precise temperature control is essential for preserving the integrity and effectiveness of medicines, ensuring that patients receive the treatments they need.
At the same time, refrigeration systems rely on refrigerants that contribute to global warming potential (GWP) and consume energy to generate cooling. That’s why it is crucial to adopt sustainable cooling solutions.
Investing in efficient and eco-friendly refrigeration technologies is key to reducing food waste and minimizing environmental impact — ensuring a healthier future for generations to come.
About
World Refrigeration Day is an international awareness campaign established by the World Refrigeration Day Secretariat to raise the profile of the refrigeration, air-conditioning and heat-pump sector and focuses attention on the significant role that the industry and its technology play in modern life and society. It draws attention to wonderful engineering and science that is all around us every day. Refrigeration is at the very heart of modern life. It enables people to live, travel and work comfortably. It saves lives. It enables people to achieve.
World Refrigeration Day is held annually on 26 June. The day was chosen to celebrate the birth date of Lord Kelvin on 26 June 1824.
