Global Codes for Ammonia Refrigeration Systems Survey

Maping Global Standards for Ammonia Refrigeration

An IIAR International Committee Initiative - 2025 UPDATE
The IIAR International Committee is continuing its work on the Mapping Global Standards for Industrial Refrigeration project.

As part of this ongoing effort, we are collecting updated information on the codes and regulations that apply to ammonia refrigeration systems in countries around the globe.

Your input is essential to ensure this resource remains accurate and relevant for industry professionals worldwide.

The information gathered will support global collaboration, improve global safety practices, and help guide the development and adoption of IIAR standards.

You can learn more about the project and its goals here:
