Dubai, United Arab Emirates: Daikin Middle East and Africa (MEA), a leading manufacturer of Heating, Ventilation, Air Conditioning & Refrigeration (HVAC-R) solutions, is set to participate in Gulfood Green 2024. This global exhibition and summit for food systems, agritech, and farm-to-fork solutions, will feature Daikin’s comprehensive range of HVAC-R solutions. To address the increasing sustainability demands in the entire food ecosystem, Daikin will showcase its newest innovations that cover every phase of the food supply chain, from production and storage to retail, including region’s growing indoor farming segment.

At the forefront of Daikin’s offerings is the company’s ‘Farm to Fork’ approach, which focuses on ensuring that food remains fresh at every step of its journey, while using the most energy efficient solutions. At Gulfood Green 2024, Daikin will demonstrate how its advanced solutions are tailored to meet the region’s unique climate challenges, delivering superior performance while reducing CO2 emissions. This includes Daikin MEA solutions with precise temperature control for indoor farming, a growing trend in the Middle East owing the region’s extreme temperatures and limited arable land. 

“Daikin’s HVAC-R solutions offer precise climate control and energy-efficiency with advanced inverter technology, low GWP refrigerants, and IoT systems, ensuring optimal freshness and minimal environmental impact. Events like Gulfood Green provide an excellent opportunity for industry professionals to connect, exchange innovations, and explore emerging trends. We are excited to showcase our sustainable solutions that enhance food growing, manufacturing and supply chain longevity and support a greener future. At Daikin, we are committed to sustainability and excellence in all our energy-efficient technologies,” said Samer Alawiah, Managing Director for Daikin UAE.
