Low GWP Chillers

Low-GWP industrial chillers are cooling systems designed to regulate temperatures in large-scale industrial processes while using refrigerants that have a low Global Warming Potential (GWP). GWP is a measure of how much heat a greenhouse gas traps in the atmosphere compared to carbon dioxide. Traditional chillers often use hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), which are highly effective but have very high GWP values, making them harmful to the environment. Low-GWP chillers, on the other hand, use alternative refrigerants such as hydrofluoroolefins (HFOs), natural refrigerants like ammonia, carbon dioxide, or hydrocarbons, which significantly reduce their climate impact while still delivering reliable cooling performance.

​

In addition to their environmental benefits, low-GWP industrial chillers are increasingly favored due to regulatory changes and corporate sustainability goals. Many regions around the world are phasing down high-GWP refrigerants under agreements such as the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol. By adopting low-GWP chillers, companies can ensure compliance with these regulations, reduce long-term operating risks, and often improve energy efficiency. As a result, these chillers not only contribute to lowering greenhouse gas emissions but also support industries in achieving cost savings and demonstrating environmental responsibility.
