Contribute to your CSR objectives by integrating environmentally-friendly energy solutions, and promote your commitment to your stakeholders.
Plant performance
Increase the lifespan and efficiency of your equipment by retrofitting or modernizing.
Opt for low-carbon refrigerants
F-Gas regulations impose strict restrictions on the use of refrigerants with high global warming potential (GWP).
To comply with these requirements and reduce your carbon footprint, we offer you sustainable alternatives:
Ammonia (NH₃) or R-717 is a natural refrigerant with high refrigeration capacity and global warming potential (GWP) = 0. It is ideal for large industrial installations such as cold stores or food processing plants.
CO₂ or R-744 is used in transcritical and subcritical systems, offering efficient refrigeration with GWP = 1. It is ideal for high-pressure applications.
Used as a secondary heat transfer medium, glycol water is non-toxic, non-flammable, and reduces the use of high-GWP refrigerants. It is perfect for indirect refrigeration systems and applications requiring efficient heat transfer, such as industrial process chillers.
A2L fluids, such as R454C, have a GWP of less than 150. Although they are slightly flammable (class A2L), they offer a safe and durable alternative for a variety of refrigeration applications, including commercial and industrial systems.
Propane or R290 is a natural hydrocarbon with a GWP = 3. It is highly efficient and environmentally friendly, although flammable. It is suitable for small commercial applications.
Retrofit your refrigeration systems
Transform your refrigeration systems into sustainable, efficient systems with our retrofit solutions. We modernize your systems to make them compatible with a low-GWP fluid.
Our expertise includes the initial assessment of your installation, selection of the right fluid, replacement of obsolete components, charging of the new fluid, and any necessary tests and adjustments.
The result is energy savings, regulatory compliance and extended equipment life.
Make the most of the waste heat from your industrial processes
Waste heat from industrial processes (waste heat from chillers, furnaces, etc.) is an often under-utilized resource. Our heat pump solutions enable this energy to be recovered and reused for a variety of purposes: industrial and/or domestic hot water production, heating, industrial processes, and so on. This circularity approach not only saves you money on your energy bill, but also reduces your CO₂ emissions.
Reduce your energy bill
We can help you optimize your facilities to reduce your energy costs and minimize your environmental impact.
Our services include consumption assessments, energy audits, costed action plans and energy performance contracts.
