Its president is Paolo Colaiemma.
According to ANIMA's press release, one of the new association's aims is to provide technical data and information that can facilitate the use of this kind of equipment. Climgas wants to undertake promotional campaigns, researches, technical and normative studies as well as economical researches and statistics. The association also intends to verify that the equipments manufactured respect the technical and performance characteristics indicated in each company's catalogues.
