Closing the year strong
As we close out the year , it ’ s a wonderful time to reflect on all that 2024 has brought to us all . With the holidays just around the corner , I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to you — our readers , contributors , and partners — for your ongoing support and dedication .

As we look ahead to 2025 , our team remains committed to bringing you the latest in technology , trends , and best practices to ensure another year of progress and success .
This issue also gives me the chance to celebrate the remarkable Heat Exchanger World Conference & Expo Europe , held on 13 & 14 November in Rotterdam . It was truly a transcending experience and opportunity to connect with so many industry professionals , exchange ideas , and delve into the innovations shaping the future of heat exchangers . We offer you to look back at these wonderful memories on pages 48-51 . Thank you to everyone who attended and made the event so impactful — I hope to see you all again at Ahoy ! Rotterdam for our Heat Exchanger World Europe Conference & Exhibition 2026 , which is set to take place 6 & 7 May 2026 .
Our December cover story is graced by a family-owned company committed to quality and serving their customers with unwavering personal touch . FACO specializes in crafting custom-made finned block heat exchangers and drycoolers for a diverse range of industries , while remaining dedicated to sustainable practices and advanced engineering . I had the pleasure of speaking with Giorgio Lorenzoni , FACO ’ s Sales Director , and explore the core principles that have driven the company ’ s success . I hope you all enjoy uncovering the unique strategies and product lines that make FACO a reliable partner in the field of heat exchangers starting from page 8 .
