The direct consequences of the ongoing phase out of refrigerants with high environmental impact
potential (Global Warming Potential – GWP), are very real and can result in inability to operate, service or
repair systems running on refrigerants which are in the process of being phased out.

The solution is not far away, Novenco Marine & Offshore can offer high efficient, low complexity and cost
effective solutions with a minimum of changes to the existing systems.

As expert providers of HVAC+R systems, we dedicate our efforts in identifying the best possible solutions
for the posing challenges, which the banding of refrigerant with high global warming potential (GWP) is
causing.

As the refrigerant manufactures are taking the lead on securing compliance with the international
recognized restrictions and banding of many of the refrigerants, typically used by the marine industry
today, the effects and consequences in the markets are already disturbingly visible – as it is implemented
earlier and with much greater impact than anticipated. For this reason, we highly recommend to carefully
consider the refrigerants used on your vessels.
Contact Novenco Marine & Offshore for solutions and further information on how this will affect you in
the near future.
