EPEE Joins 200 Pledgers In Saying No To Illegal HFCS

EPEE Joins 200 Pledgers In Saying No To Illegal HFCS

EPEE is proud to join over 200 other organisations in pledging to end the use of illegal HFCs. We look forward to continuing the work with our partners in the fight against illegal trade of HFCs.

The HFC black market has links to organized crime, with devastating consequences for business, individuals and the environment. The only way to truly end the illegal HFC trade, is by working together. At EPEE, we are committed to playing our part in realising this ambition.

We have joined other members and partners within the sector, check the full list of pledgers here.

The pledge is organised by the campaign stop illegal cooling, an initiative of CEFIC’s European Fluorocarbons Technical Committee (EFCTC). More information on the pledge can be found here: https://stopillegalcooling.eu/.
