Darment takes part in Kylmätekniikan Koulutuspäivät 2020

Darment participated at Kylmätekniikan koulutuspäivät – as it has been tradition for years now. Kylmäpäivät is held at Hotelli Korpilampi, Espoo, and is one of the biggest refrigerant related events in the Finnish refrigeration business. Last year the fair attracted nearly 400 visitors. (2)
Suomen Kylmäliikkeiden Liitto Ry ‘s event fair exhibits Finland’s biggest refrigerant companies, and offers informative lectures about topics of current interest. This year participants heard for example Pertti Hakala’s speech about vegetable refrigeration and Dick Nordström’s speech of CE-labelling and laws. See the whole fair schedule from here.

Suomen Kylmäliikkeiden Liitto Ry:n CEO Mika Kapanen, how did the event go compared to previous years?
” There is a clear demand in having an event like this in the refrigerant industry, since there have been about 400 participants at the event in the last 2 years (y 2019 + 2020). Refrigerant industry is about to change a lot – not only because changes in refrigerants – but also because we need to take a part in battling the climate change.”
Can you say what speech was the most popular ; are there anyone you would like to lift up as a speaker?
“I would like to mention two refrigerant gurus : Esko Kaappola and Pertti Hakala. Both have been told that this was – after tens of years – the last time they held speeches at Kylmäalan koulutuspäivät. Esko have been lecturing 30 times and Pertti 22 times!”
Were there anything worth mentioning happening at the legendary evening get-together?
“The evening get-togethers are super important meeting occasions to refrigerant entrepreneurs and industry workers. During these laid back evenings there are no labels – people meet and connect with each other and exchange current thoughts. Even some business were made during these get-togethers!”
Get a taste of the atmosphere below. See you next year!
