Reclamation Process & Purity Levels

Our reclaimed R404A undergoes a comprehensive three-stage purification:
1. Collection & Pre-Filtration: End-of-life R404A is retrieved from decommissioned equipment and screened to remove particulate contaminants.
2. Distillation & Moisture Removal: The refrigerant is distilled to separate impurities and dried to achieve <10 ppm moisture content.
3. Micro-Filtration & Certification: A final micro-filtration step ensures ≥99.8% purity, verified by independent laboratory testing to meet AHRI 700-2018 standards. Each cylinder includes a Certificate of Analysis (CoA) confirming composition and purity.

Blend Composition: R-125 / R-143a / R-134a (mixture ratios identical to virgin R404A)
Zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP = 0)
Global Warming Potential (GWP = 3 922), identical to virgin R404A

Z

Identical Cooling Performance

Engineered to meet AHRI purity requirements, reclaimed R404A delivers the same heat-transfer efficiency, capacity, and COP as virgin R404A.

Z

Significant Cost Savings

Priced 20–30 % below virgin R404A, reclaimed refrigerant lowers expenses for large-scale refrigeration and service operations.

Z

Lower Carbon Footprint

By reusing existing refrigerant, CO₂ emissions associated with new HFC manufacturing are reduced by up to 70 %, supporting Europe’s climate objectives.

Z

EU F-Gas Compliance & Traceability

Each batch is labeled under EU F-Gas Regulation (EU 517/2014), accompanied by a Certificate of Analysis and compliance documentation for legal traceability.

Z

Fast EU Distribution

Stored in strategically located European warehouses (Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy, Spain), guaranteeing quick delivery and minimal lead times for urgent needs.

Z

Supports Circular Economy

Promotes resource conservation by extending the life cycle of R404A, aligning with sustainability goals and reducing dependency on virgin HFC production.

Applications & Use Cases

Low-Temperature Freezers & Blast Chillers

Reclaimed R404A is perfect for:
Industrial Cold Storage at –40 °C to –10 °C, such as food processing plants in Germany, Poland, and Scandinavia.
Blast Freezing Tunnels in seafood and meat facilities across Belgium and the Netherlands requiring rapid freeze-down.
Pharmaceutical Ultra-Low-Temp Storage (–20 °C to –80 °C) for vaccines and lab reagents in research centers throughout Europe.

Medium-Temperature Retail Display & Cold Rooms

Supermarket Frozen Food Aisles (–10 °C to +5 °C) in grocery chains like Lidl, Carrefour, and Tesco.
Bakery & Dairy Display Cabinets in retail outlets across France and Italy, maintaining consistent temperatures for perishable items.
Walk-In Refrigeration Rooms in hospitality and food service environments in Spain and Portugal, ensuring safe storage of fresh produce and dairy.

Pressure-Temperature Profile (Matches Virgin R404A)

Boiling Point @ 1 atm: –46.5 °C
Evaporation Pressure @ –23 °C: ~1.2 bar (gauge)
Condensing Pressure @ 40 °C: ~17.5 bar (gauge)
Condensing Pressure @ 50 °C: ~19.5 bar (gauge)

These values ensure stable, reliable performance in European freezers and cold storage units, replicating the behavior of virgin R404A across all operating conditions.
