Eurovent and REHVA call on all relevant authorities in the EU and globally to recognise the manufacturing, distribution, installation, maintenance and repair of HVACR equipment as essential business activities and therefore exempt them from COVIDeurovent-market-intelligence/news/eurovent-market-intelligence/-19 shutdown orders and travel restrictions. HVACR equipment supports critical infrastructure in the healthcare, food cold chain, data centre and building sectors notably. prolonged shutdown of HVACR manufacturing activities might have severe consequences during and after the COVIDeurovent-market-intelligence/news/eurovent-market-intelligence/-19 pandemic.
