Güntner hosted its first-ever Impact Summit in Budapest last month bringing together over 270 total attendees – including 186 customers from 36 countries.
This dynamic, three-day event underscored Güntner’s commitment to driving positive environmental change through cutting-edge technologies and customer-centered solutions.
The topics of sustainability and AI are no longer just trends; they are the pillars driving the transformation of industries worldwide.
The Impact Summit highlighted the urgent need for cross-sector collaboration to achieve ambitious sustainability goals, with 14 expert speakers, such as Amazon Web Services, addressing critical topics such as sustainable solutions for AI data centres, enhancing efficiency in cold storage, and more.
Güntner’s managing director, Gernot Puntigam, said the Impact Summit brought together key voices in the refrigeration sector to explore innovative, eco-friendly solutions that address today’s most pressing sustainability challenges.
“The insightful discussions and presentations we shared showcased our increasing momentum in shaping a greener, more efficient future for the industry – together,” he said.
This event also served as a platform to reveal the company’s ambitions for sustainability, with discussions revolving around new technologies and sustainable solutions.
A key moment at the Summit was the unveiling of Güntner’s new Impact label, an initiative aimed at helping customers identify the most sustainable and technologically advanced products within their portfolio.
The Impact° label will highlight products, technologies, fluids, and solutions that are environmentally friendly, energy-efficient, and resource-saving.
As a result, customers will have the opportunity to create a system that offers maximum energy efficiency and reliability in operation, while creating minimum negative impact on the planet.
J & E Hall International’s systems design engineer, Salaheddine Zantout, said the summit included a factory visit.
“Seeing how they’re using new technologies like AI further cements why we trust Güntner
with absolute confidence,” he said.
Güntner’s Impact Summit wasn’t just about discussing sustainability—it was a call to action for the industry to come together and drive positive environmental change on a global scale.
From revolutionizing cooling and heating technologies to enhancing operational efficiency in data centres, the Summit provided a platform for groundbreaking ideas and transformative solutions for customers, addressing individual concerns and emphasizing Güntner’s forward-thinking approach.
