Further information about our Products & Services

CFCs

We can recommend, and supply, alternative retrofit gases for your CFC equipment, in accordance with global legislation on the use of CFCs.

HCFCs

We can recommend alternative products in line with global legislation that has phased out the use of HCFCs.

HFCs We supply a range of HFC refrigerants, including many designed for use as retrofit alternatives for HCFCs.
HFOs We provide new, low GWP, HFO refrigerants such as Opteon YF, XP40 and XP44.
Natural Refrigerants As a leading supplier of natural refrigerants, we sell R717 (ammonia), R744 (carbon dioxide) and a wide range of hydrocarbon-based refrigerants.
Reclaim, Recovery & Waste Management Our recovery services enable the safe and legal disposal of refrigerants. We also provide reclamation and waste services.
Leak Detection Gases We offer a range of gases for pressure testing and to aid leak detection to help ensure your systems run efficiently.
Global Warming Legislation: HFC Control

Many HFC refrigerants have medium to high GWP and therefore contribute to global warming if released to the atmosphere. Legislation and operational best practices have increasingly looked towards reducing the impact of these gases.

FAQs We answer some commonly asked questions about refrigerants.
