Sector Plan to Phase-Out HCFC 141b in the Foam Sector

Short Title: HCFC 141b
Funding Source: Multilateral Fund to Montreal Protocol, UNIDO, Japan
Sector: Environment
Status: Completed
Region Covered: Nationwide
Project Site: Nationwide View Map
Project Cost (USD M): 2.09
Start Date: January 1, 2011
