Whole Foods Market adopts Honeywell refrigerant technology

0

Global natural and organic foods retailer Whole Foods Market will utilise Honeywell’s Solstice® N40 (R-448A) lower global-warming-potential (GWP) refrigerants in its US store.

The installation is planned for more than 100 Whole Foods stores as part of an effort to reduce refrigerant emissions under the US Environmental Protection Agency’s GreenChill programme.

Based on hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) technology, Solstice N40 offers a GWP that is approximately 68% lower than legacy hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants like R-404A.

When using Solstice N40, refrigeration systems also consume less energy than their counterparts that cool using HFCs. In US and European supermarket trials, in comparison to R-404A, Solstice N40 demonstrated an average of between 5 to 15% lower energy consumption in refrigeration applications.
