The #CoolSkills campaign for World Refrigeration Day 2025 continues—this time with insights from India, where HVAC&R Engineering Excellence is in sync with environmental responsibilities.
Meet Mr. Vikash Sekhani, Director at Dry All, a known face in the manufacturing of 'Full Range of HVAC&R Line Products'. With over 3 decades of experience and a vision rooted in innovation, he believes Cool Skills are more than technical know-how—they are the backbone of modern infrastructure and sustainable development.
"Refrigeration and Air Conditioning aren’t luxuries anymore, but these are they’re the lifelines.
From hospitals to data centers, cold rooms to clean rooms, they keep the world running."
Here’s what he shared about the critical need to recognize Refrigeration and Air Conditioning skills beyond the HVAC&R industry:
An invisible enabler of modern life- Whether it’s ensuring food safety, vaccine viability, or thermal comfort in urban environments, commercial and industrial air conditioning systems are vital. Yet, their impact often goes unnoticed.
Cooling for productivity and progress- In manufacturing plants, server farms, shopping malls, and large office complexes, precision cooling is not just about comfort – it’s essential for performance, uptime, and energy efficiency. Skilled professionals make that possible.
India’s cooling challenge and opportunity- As demand for cooling solutions grows, especially in emerging economies, the need for skilled technicians and sustainable technologies becomes even more urgent. Innovation in commercial and industrial air conditioning is key to meeting this demand responsibly with an eye on sustainability.
Awareness drives adoption- From policymakers to the public, a wider understanding of how cooling touches everyday life will inspire investment in both technology and talent. The future lies in bridging awareness with action.
“We must move beyond components—we must build capabilities. Cool Skills are what connect today’s needs with tomorrow’s solutions.”
A powerful reminder that behind every system keeping things cool, there's a human story of skill, service, and silent impact.
