"We have had a great show. Our stand has been busy throughout and generated a lot of interest. Even on the first day, which is traditionally the slower day, we were busy for much of the day on our stand. Overall, we are delighted with what the show has delivered – the quality of the visitors has been excellent."
Paul Taylor, Panasonic

"The ACR Show has been very positive for Pump House, the stand was very busy throughout and overall we are very happy with what the show has delivered. If you wish to riase your company profile and generate product interest - this is the show for you. An excellent three day refrigeration and air conditioning show for any company in the industry!"
Craig Peebles - Sales Director, Pump House

"It has been an unbelievable show for us. The interest in our stand has been phenomenal - it has been so busy I haven't been able to get off! We sold an oil reclamation machine on the stand and secured a deal for multiple ClimaChecks on the strength of being here."
Mike Creamer, md of Business Edge

“It has been a great show. Our service – using 3D laser scanners to create a 2D plan of premises – has created particular excitement. We landed orders for scanning properties in the Caribbean as a result of being at the show. We have also been visited by representatives of the major supermarkets who are interested in the potential. Exhibiting at the show has opened massive new doors for us that we couldn’t otherwise have gained access to.”
Rhys Scrivener, KR Associates

“We have had some excellent enquiries as a result of exhibiting at the show. The quality of visitors has been extremely high. Exhibiting has hugely increased the profile of the company. Overall, it has been a very positive show for us.”
Kevin Broughton, Box Clever Engineering

“It has been an excellent show. We have seen a lot of contractors compared to similar shows in previous years, which is obviously good given our focus. The stand has been extremely busy. On an industry level, I am pleased that the show has been a success as it is a great showcase for the UK trade as a whole. We need it!”
Andy Harvey, Advanced Engineering

“It is one of the best refrigeration shows I have ever exhibited at. The whole experience has been extremely positive for us. We used the show as a technology showcase and the level of interest and quality of visitors has been excellent. We have seen some very high level people from major end users, particularly the big supermarkets. Being at the show has enabled us to clinch some major purchasing deals. Our competitors missed a trick – and I think they will regret not being here. You can have the best brochure in the world, but you can’t beat being able to touch and see products first hand.”
Paul Langford, AHT

“The contacts that we have had a result of exhibiting at the show have been fantastic. We have had very senior people on our stand, at the highest level – from the top companies in the industry. It has been great for us. On the strength of it, we have booked again for the next show – and with a bigger stand.”
Steve Davies, Javac

“It has been a very good quality show for us. We have had serious buyers and lots of interest. We will definitely be back, and in fact have already rebooked for the 2014 show. It is a relatively small show compared to other ones we exhibit at, but it is very focussed and produced really high quality visitors – exactly what we want.”
Joanne Taylor, Oxford Hardware

 “It has been a great show for us with extremely high quality visitors. We have met new potential distributors here - they are completely new people we would not otherwise have been able to connect with. We have already booked to exhibit at the next show.”
Kristof Van de Sompel, Matercool Europe

“The show has been very good for us. Our stand has been busy and generated a lot of interest among visitors.”
Kilian Erni, Refco

“It is the first time we have exhibited – and the show has been fantastic for us! We have met and spoken to some extremely senior people. Our new launch, an aluminium/copper tube, has created huge interest and it has been virtually non-stop on our stand. We will be back!”
Oliver Lawton, Lawton Tubes

“The response has been quite amazing. We are ecstatic with what the show has delivered, from day one. We were a little nervous to begin with, but any doubts were quickly dispelled by the numbers and quality of visitors to our stand. We have had the major end users and the big contractors. We had to draft in reinforcements to cope with the level of interest on our stand! The show has been tremendous success for us.”
Mark Henderson, FSW

“The show has been very good. We have seen high quality prospects which could lead to substantial new business for the company. It has helped raise our profile and re-confirm the Frascold brand in the market. There is a lot to follow up as a result of the show. And… we will be back!”
Howard Davis, Frascold

“It has been great for us. The show has a good balance between refrigeration and air conditioning, which wasn’t always true in the past. Considering it is a launch, the acr team have done a great job – and created something they and the industry can build on for the future.”
Ashley Cobb, Heronhill

“We had a superb show – and signed an order for the refurbishment of nine chillers at a location in London. The potential customers came and visited at the show on the Tuesday, we discussed it and did the deal on the Thursday. Fantastic – and directly as a  result of being at the show. We have found a very high level of visitor. Serious people and serious buyers. We have already booked for the next show.”
Charlie Wijnveen, Blygold
