A-Gas collaborates with the EPA to pioneer sustainable refrigerant solutions

The partnership intends to promote the circular economy by managing the full refrigerant lifespan and lowering emissions. The partnership’s goal is to provide an example for others in creating a more sustainable future.

Bowling Green, a global leader in refrigerant supply and lifecycle management, disclosed that it has joined the distinguished EPA GreenChill collaboration, demonstrating their commitment to sustainability and industry leadership. GreenChill is a prominent voluntary alliance of refrigerant and chemical companies, food stores, and system makers that promotes advanced technologies, tactics, and practices to safeguard the environment and human health. As a result, GreenChill’s objective is consistent with A-Gas’ goal of protecting and improving the environment through effective refrigerant lifecycle management in order to achieve a more sustainable future.

“As an EPA GreenChill partner, A-Gas is poised to continue driving innovative solutions within the refrigeration industry,” said Mike Armstrong, Managing Director and President, Americas, at A-Gas. “This partnership underscores our unwavering commitment to supporting our customers, especially in the supermarket and food retail sectors, to move to more environmentally friendly products—such as R448, R449, and reclaimed refrigerants—and processes as they navigate through the evolving regulatory landscape.”

A-Gas provides comprehensive solutions to its customers for the whole lifecycle of their refrigerants. A-Gas, with expertise in handling a wide range of refrigerants and cutting-edge recovery, reclamation, and destruction technologies, is well-equipped to help supermarkets, food retailers, and other GreenChill members support the circular economy by managing the entire lifecycle of their refrigerants.

“Through Rapid Recovery, our nationwide on-site refrigerant recovery service, we provide turnkey, EPA-compliant refrigerant recoveries to support food retailers during their maintenance and retrofit projects, helping to minimise costly downtime. Additionally, we provide product assurance and supply certified reclaimed refrigerants and lower GWP alternatives to many GreenChill members and other leading companies in the North American refrigeration industry,” shared Taylor Ferranti, Commercial Vice President of Refrigerant Management at A-Gas. “We’re proud to join forces as part of the GreenChill partnership, setting an example for others to build a more sustainable future.”

“By entering the Partnership, A-Gas joins industry leaders committed to reducing emissions and managing their use of climate-damaging refrigerants,” said Bella Maranion, Senior Advisor in EPA’s Stratospheric Protection Division and member of the GreenChill Team. “We look forward to their contributions to the GreenChill Partnership’s continued success.”
