It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Ian Garvey FInstR.
An IOR member since 2006 he was made a Fellow in 2014. Ian played a pivotal role in shaping the industry through his work with the BRA Commercial Refrigerated Cabinets Section and BSI standards committee, contributing for over 25 years. He was also an author of an IOR paper in 2011 on the use of hydrocarbons in commercial refrigeration.
Our thoughts are with his family and loved ones during this difficult time.
