25LB R448A R-448A Freon Refrigerant Gas

R-448A is a next-generation refrigerant blend engineered to replace R-404A and R-507 in commercial refrigeration systems. With a substantially lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) and strong performance characteristics, R-448A is widely adopted by supermarkets, cold storage facilities, and food processing operations. As global regulations accelerate the phase-down of high-GWP refrigerants, R-448A provides a sustainable, efficient, and future-ready alternative.

Key Features and Benefits

✅ Lower GWP Solution
R-448A offers a GWP of 1,273, reducing climate impact by nearly 70% compared to R-404A (GWP ~3,922), ensuring compliance with F-Gas, EPA SNAP, and other international environmental standards.

✅ High Energy Efficiency
Delivers excellent cooling performance and efficiency close to R-404A, with potential energy savings in properly optimized systems.

✅ Non-Ozone Depleting
With an ODP of 0, R-448A has no harmful effect on the ozone layer, supporting long-term sustainability.

✅ Safety Classification
ASHRAE classified as A1 – non-flammable and non-toxic – ensuring safe use in commercial refrigeration applications.

✅ Retrofit Compatibility
Designed as a near drop-in replacement for R-404A and R-507, compatible with existing equipment with minimal modifications.
