Carbon Dioxide (CO₂)
Across today's food industry and cold-storage sector, CO₂ (R744) has become a leading technology for high-demand refrigeration systems. Its exceptional thermodynamic properties support high energy efficiency and outstanding temperature stability, even under variable loads.
With a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 1 and zero ozone-depletion impact, CO₂ supports compliance with the most demanding environmental standards while reducing long-term regulatory obsolescence risk.
Its properties also enable compact, efficient system designs for both industrial freezing processes and large cold-logistics platforms.

Advantages
Environmentally responsible
Outstanding thermal performance in freezing applications
High density
Natural refrigerant
No water required
High heat-recovery potential
Recommended systems by operating requirement
Every operation has different requirements. We organize our solutions by application so you can quickly identify the system best suited to your process, product, and operating objectives.
IQF System (Individual Quick Freezing)
We enhance IQF system efficiency by integrating CO₂ as a natural refrigerant. This technology delivers ultra-fast freezing that preserves strawberry cell structure by limiting the formation of large ice crystals, while providing superior heat-transfer capacity. An R744 solution supports faster processing, optimized energy use, demanding ESG goals, premium product quality, and a smaller environmental footprint.
Key benefits
Preserves product shape, texture, and quality
Uniform freezing at high volumes
Greater operating efficiency in industrial processes
Cold-chain stability and reliability
Plate Freezer System with CO₂ compression
Freezing avocado pulp requires strict process control to preserve its color, texture, and natural properties. Because the product is sensitive to oxidation and temperature variation, efficient, uniform cooling is essential from processing through final consumption.
This application requires dependable systems that deliver consistent freezing, optimize storage space, and maintain continuous operation in high-volume industrial processes.
