The Industrial Refrigeration Network Conference (IRN) will take place from 4 to 5 June 2025 at the SCHAUFLER Academy in Rottenburg-Ergenzingen. BITZER, a specialist in refrigeration, air conditioning, and heat pump technology, is hosting the event for the second time. The conference will center on safe, future-proof, and energy-efficient solutions using natural refrigerants in industrial refrigeration.
The IRN conference aims to serve as a recurring platform for industry professionals across Europe, including manufacturers, installers, contractors, planners, end users, and scientific representatives. Industry associations such as Eurammon and the International Institute of Ammonia Refrigeration (IIAR) are also involved in promoting natural refrigerants. The IRN conference was first launched in 2024 by a group of European HVAC&R component and system suppliers.
“At the IRN conference, we bring together experts to discuss current topics in industrial refrigeration and to present and discuss solutions. The two-day event offers participants a platform to exchange ideas on the latest trends and challenges and thus actively shape the future of industrial refrigeration,” says Bernhard Blaeser, Head of Industrial Refrigeration at BITZER.
The conference will feature:
- Keynote presentations on the current state and future outlook of industrial refrigeration
- Technical presentations by various industry players
- Exhibition stands showcasing future-oriented industrial refrigeration solutions
- Networking opportunities for participants
Among the innovations presented, BITZER will highlight its Ammonia Compressor Packs (ACPs), screw compressor packs specifically developed for ammonia as a refrigerant. These units are fully assembled and ready for quick on-site installation.
Registration for the IRN conference is open until 29 May 2025.
