In Europe, demand for split-type room air conditioners (RACs) for residential use and packaged air conditioners (PACs) for light commercial use has emerged in mid-latitude countries such as Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Poland, and Austria in recent years.

However, in March, sales of air conditioners in Europe fell sharply due to restricted economic activities in the context of the declaration of emergency situations in each country, along with closed borders.
