Cold Industry

The cold industry must navigate several challenges, including energy efficiency, regulatory compliance, and the need for reliable cooling systems that ensure the preservation of perishable goods. Oxynord’s solutions are specifically designed to address these challenges. The company offers a diverse portfolio of Honeywell refrigerants, which not only deliver superior cooling performance but also adhere to global environmental standards, such as the Montreal Protocol and its amendments, aimed at reducing the use of ozone-depleting substances and lowering global warming potential (GWP).

Oxynord’s expertise in the refrigeration industry allows it to provide tailored solutions that ensure both operational efficiency and regulatory compliance. As environmental regulations evolve, Oxynord stays ahead of the curve, offering products that meet the industry’s growing demands for sustainability and energy efficiency.

Refrigerants form the core of any cold storage system, providing the essential cooling power needed to maintain the freshness and safety of products. Oxynord offers a wide selection of Honeywell refrigerants for both industrial and commercial applications, each carefully chosen for their low GWP, energy efficiency, and compliance with environmental regulations.

• Solstice® yf (R-1234yf): A next-generation refrigerant with a low global warming potential, Solstice yf is designed to meet the needs of industries that require energy-efficient and environmentally responsible refrigeration systems. It is an ideal choice for commercial and industrial refrigeration applications where compliance with GWP limits is essential.
• R-134a: This widely used refrigerant is known for its reliability and cooling performance, making it a popular choice in both automotive and commercial refrigeration systems. While R-134a is gradually being phased out due to its higher GWP, it remains a critical refrigerant for existing systems.
• R-404A: Commonly used in supermarket refrigeration and commercial cold storage, R-404A provides strong cooling capabilities but is being replaced by more environmentally friendly alternatives due to its higher GWP. Oxynord offers support for transitioning to newer refrigerants that offer similar performance with a lower environmental impact.
• R-407F and R-448A: These low-GWP refrigerants are becoming increasingly popular in industrial applications due to their energy efficiency and compliance with global environmental standards. They are suitable for a variety of refrigeration systems, including those in food processing and cold storage facilities.

Oxynord’s selection of refrigerants helps businesses in the cold industry optimize their systems for performance, sustainability, and compliance with regulations aimed at reducing the environmental footprint of refrigerant gases.

In addition to refrigerants, Oxynord supplies a range of industrial gases that support cooling processes in the cold industry. These gases, when used in conjunction with refrigerants, help improve the efficiency and safety of cooling systems, ensuring that they operate at peak performance.

• Nitrogen: Nitrogen is used in cryogenic cooling and freezing applications, particularly in the food industry, where quick freezing is required to maintain the freshness and quality of products. Nitrogen’s low temperature makes it ideal for rapidly freezing items without damaging their structure.
• Carbon Dioxide: Carbon dioxide (CO2) is widely used in refrigeration and freezing applications, especially in supermarket refrigeration systems. CO2 is a natural refrigerant with a very low global warming potential, making it an environmentally friendly option for industries looking to reduce their carbon footprint.

Oxynord’s industrial gases not only support traditional refrigeration systems but also play a key role in advanced cooling technologies, enabling businesses to achieve greater energy efficiency while adhering to environmental regulations.

Oxynord’s commitment to sustainability is reflected in its portfolio of low-GWP refrigerants and eco-friendly gases. The company works closely with its clients to ensure that their refrigeration systems meet regulatory requirements, offering guidance on the transition to more environmentally friendly refrigerants. Oxynord’s team of experts provides ongoing support to help businesses adapt to changing regulations while maintaining the high levels of performance and efficiency required by the cold industry.
