PENTANES FOR INSULATION MATERIALS IN THE COOLING INDUSTRY
EFFICIENT COOLING – OUR PENTANES CONTRIBUTE TO CLIMATE PROTECTION
Insulation materials in the refrigeration and cooling industry have to fulfil special criteria. On the one hand, they should provide high insulation performance and, at the same time, have a low insulation thickness. The reason for this are the
— standardised external dimensions for refrigeration units and
— strict energy efficiency regulations of the European Green Deal.
Despite the specified external dimensions, customers expect a high internal volume with maximum energy efficiency at the same time. For manufacturers of refrigerators, but also refrigerated trucks, air-conditioning rooms or refrigeration systems, for example in supermarkets, this represents a particular challenge. This is because the insulation panels must be as thin as possible while maintaining high performance.
The market requirements for Pentanes, which are used as blowing agents for insulating foams, are clearly defined by the insulation industry:
— High energy efficiency— Consistently high product quality
— Individual formulations
— Good ecological profile
PENTANES FOR MORE ENERGY EFFICIENCY & SUSTAINABILITY
The refrigeration of food has revolutionised the food supply. Refrigerators, refrigerated trucks, climate-controlled storage and industrial freezers provide variety and longevity for food and beverages. However, refrigeration equipment is very energy-intensive, especially since it is in continuous operation.
As the production and consumption of energy accounts for more than 75% of the EU's greenhouse gas emissions, the refrigeration industry is also striving for more sustainability (Energy and Green Deal | EU Commission (europa.eu). →
Examples for more sustainability:
- Extended spare parts options for repairs of household appliances
- Energy saving targets for final energy and primary energy consumption
- The EU's new energy efficiency label
Today, the refrigeration industry is therefore focusing more than ever on sustainability.
As blowing agents in the insulation of refrigeration appliances, Pentanes are directly responsible for the insulation performance. This ensures a positive environmental balance:
