Following the Reefer Explosions which took place in 2011, the COA has been acting as an information platform for data relating to Counterfeit Refrigerant Gases and Contaminated Refrigeration Machinery.
To permit a useful interchange of information within the industry, the COA organised five Reefer Forums between November 2011 and June 2012, where the issues have been reviewed and discussed.
The presentations (where available) made at these meetings are published below.
