FRIGAIR 2022

WILL PROVIDE INDUSTRY STIMULUS

By Benjamin Brits
Like so many others , you too may be tired of the endless virtual meetings , your home studio or staring at the same four walls each day at your office being limited to engaging with your clients and industry at large – diarise the dates to attend FRIGAIR 2022 !

Since 1980 , FRIGAIR has been providing the industry-preferred platform for engagement for doing business , knowledge transfer and networking opportunities . This year ’ s event will no doubt hold a lot of excitement and create stimulus for the entire HERVAC industries on the back of a tough period for global trade . One of the South African Institute for Refrigeration and Air Conditioning ’ s ( SAIRAC ) premier events , the FRIGAIR expo is the largest dedicated HERVAC trade exhibition in Africa . The new dates are set for 01 – 03 June 2022 at the Gallagher Convention Centre , in Midrand .

Having been pushed back a year due to the ongoing pandemic , the industry continues to ‘ green-light ’ this event through the positive engagements , the regular enquires on visitation and the fast-growing exhibitor list . One particular question that keeps cropping up is if this event will be in person , and the answer is YES ! Naturally , digital elements will be included , however as industry agrees , the best platform is one where faceto-face interactions can take place . A lot of progress in techniques and technology has occurred of late , driven primarily by solutions to aspects related to indoor air quality as well as efficiency , and the heightened drive in the struggle to mitigate global warming and its effects .
It will have been four years since the last FRIGAIR took place in 2018 and all role players ’ excitement is growing as enthusiasm
