Thesis
The International Institute of Refrigeration (IIR) offers PhD, Master and Bachelor students the possibility of publishing their final thesis in the FRIDOC database - the largest database dedicated to refrigeration - and thus giving it greater visibility.
This assumes that the thesis covers a field related to refrigeration technologies or applications and that the thesis holder is from one of the 59 member countries of the IIR.
The holder of the thesis will have to provide his/her thesis in PDF format, indicate his/her nationality and give his/her agreement for the inclusion of the thesis in FRIDOC, specifying that there is no copyright conflict for its publication.

Encyclopedia of refrigeration
The IIR's Encyclopedia of Refrigeration brings together a set of synthetic articles on refrigeration technologies and applications. Rather than comprehensively covering a topic, they have been prepared with the objective of providing the main information, while referring the reader to various sources of additional information to go deeper into the subject, in FRIDOC in particular.
IIR events
Discover the latest developments in the sector and network with key stakeholders at upcoming flagship IIR conferences and co-sponsored conferences dedicated to all refrigeration technologies.
International Dictionary of Refrigeration
Never misinterpret a technical refrigeration word again! This online IIR tool provides definitions and translations of key scientific terms in 11 different languages.
Thematic files
The thematic files summarise essential information in 12 key fields of refrigeration. Prepared by the IIR or by experts from its network, the files present the major technological trends or the economic data of each field.
Informatory Notes
Designed to meet the needs of decision-makers worldwide, IIR Informatory Notes summarise knowledge of key technologies and applications of refrigeration.

Participation in the IIR's network
Each member country up to date with its contribution is entitled to a number of commission members depending on its category of membership.
In addition, the member country may propose an equivalent number of junior commission members (maximum 35 years of age on the day of their nomination). This proposal may come from any commission member and must be validated by the country's delegate and then by the president of the commission corresponding to the expertise of the person concerned. Junior commission members appear in the IIR Expertise Directory and benefit from a few services: 10 downloads in FRIDOC a year, full access to the newsletter and to all the IIR Informatory Notes, access to the IIR directories.
