The Australian Refrigeration Council (ARC) provides both leadership for and service to the climate control industry through engagement and advocacy with technicians, companies, governments, training institutions and the public. As the national licensing body for Australia’s climate control industry, ARC maintains a network of regulated, highly-skilled professionals in both the mobile and stationary sectors.
A safe, environmentally friendly and dynamic climate control industry
ARC represents more than 135,000 licensed individuals and businesses. It provides leadership and support to the climate control industry through its work to raise the profile of the sector and a general understanding of its importance to modern life.
The critical role of the climate control industry is not always recognised by consumers, or by the corporate and government sectors. ARC works through many channels and media to promote the role of technicians as the hands-on environmental heroes of climate control, secure food storage and protection of medical infrastructure.
Environmental protection is the very heart of ARC’s purpose, and that includes keeping up with evolving technology and with the need for skilled technicians. Our primary focus is to maintain and grow Australia’s network of highly skilled and licensed professionals who help to protect the ozone layer and slow global warming by eliminating preventable emissions of environmentally harmful refrigerants
