Woolworths to host World Refrigeration Day events

Supermarket chain Woolworths has announced that it will mark World Refrigeration Day by holding free events in six cities nationwide on Thursday, June 26.

Woolworths says the in-person events will last for approximately one hour and will explore the future of refrigeration, with a focus on the vital role refrigeration technicians are playing in the transition to natural refrigerants. The events cater to young people who may be considering a trade vocation, with the aim of introducing applicants to careers as an HVAC&R technician.
