At the next edition of EuroShop, Panasonic presented its range of advanced solutions for retail store refrigeration and air quality improvement in retail facilities. EuroShop - the world's largest trade fair for retail solutions - is held in Düsseldorf every three years.
During the five-day event, Panasonic presented innovative HVAC-R solutions for the retail sector. On display at the booth were Panasonic condensing units for cold chains, among others. They provide reliable and sustainable cooling using natural refrigerant R744 (CO2). Also on display was the operation of the Panasonic 2HP chiller, which uses naturally occurring R744 refrigerant with a low global warming potential (GWP) of 1, significantly reducing environmental impact. R744 helps reduce each store's carbon footprint by keeping the food sold fresh without the risk of contamination. Visitors to Panasonic's booth were also able to learn about theCO2 Refrigeration Designer, a useful calculation tool from Panasonic developed to help engineers, installers and technicians quickly perform calculations when designing commercial refrigeration solutions.

Panasonic also unveiled the innovative air-e, the first ceiling-mounted nanoe™X generator for improving indoor air quality. The air-e generator features low energy consumption and has a wide range of retail applications. The maintenance-free nanoe™X technology produces up to 4.8 trillion hydroxyl radicals (also known as OH radicals) per second. Abundant in nature, hydroxyl radicals have the ability to inhibit certain contaminants, viruses and bacteria. The technology has been tested under laboratory conditions and results have shown that it can inhibit the spread of coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) and influenza virus subtype H1N1 by up to 99. 9 percent.1
