Regulatory mandates and corporate sustainability initiatives are driving the transition toward more environmentally friendly refrigerant alternatives. Many of the commonly used hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants used in commercial refrigeration applications have a high global warming potential (GWP). Global, federal and state regulations are actively phasing down the use and production of these high-GWP HFCs.
Natural refrigerants have very low-GWP levels and offer thermodynamic properties well-suited for modern commercial refrigeration applications.
