Key highlights at the Daikin stand in hall 4 B086
- The Daikin Exigo Trailer Refrigeration Unit entered mass production in early 2023 and is based on an electric architecture with Daikin inverter technology for optimal electrical efficiency. This solidifies Daikin's entry into the field of transport refrigeration, moving towards a completely electric, emissions-free future.
