Manufacturers in the air conditioning industry can now strengthen their commitments to environmental protection and sustainability by applying for the recently published Green Choice Philippines (GCP) criteria for Room Air Conditioners. Manufacturers can also use the GCP seal to communicate their conformity to sustainable commitments by aligning with the environmental requirements of the ecolabelling criteria for room air conditioners.
Modern heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) appliances are seen as a critical appliance for daily human activities as it is being utilised in an assortment of activities and is used by a variety of industries whether in airlines, business infrastructures, and residential areas (McDowall, 2007). McDowall also presents the idea that there is a great convenience brought by these types of products as HVACs are used to control humidity and temperature in enclosed or confined indoor spaces–buildings, offices and residential buildings.
The continuous growth of the global temperature increases the overall demand for air conditioners. The heat waves that are racing on a global level are breaking records. The market demand for air conditioners in the Philippines is predicted to have a gradual growth for years including 2024 and 2025 due to the tropical weather and rise in heat and humidity in the country.
Most refrigerants used in room air conditioners have severe effects on the environment due to their ozone depletion potentials (ODP) and global warming potentials (GWP) prompting us to take action to help reduce the rising temperatures and reduce emissions.
Green Choice Philippines, a third-party certification programme, that is based on ISO 14024, developed a criteria for room air conditioners to help promote environmentally preferable room air conditioners. The said criteria can guide the air conditioning industry in adopting sustainable manufacturing practices while also assisting consumers to choose cooling equipment that has less adverse effects on the environment.
