The Centro Studi Galileo, located in Italia, announced that training sessions will start in Argentina in 2018.

Inspired by the training sessions organised in Europe to help servicing technicians comply with the F gas regulation, the Centro Studi Galileo announced that training sessions will start in Argentina in 2018, after two conferences in Buenos Aires and Rosario at the beginning of December 2017. HCFC22 is still widely used in commercial refrigeration in Argentina, but the transition towards lower GWP refrigerants is beginning. Thus, 11 supermarkets are equipped with CO₂ transcritical systems, according to EPTA.
