Increasing the quality of life, securing human health, operating refrigeration and air conditioning installations as efficient as possible, while protecting the environment.

With our longtime experience in fluorine chemistry, Solvay Fluor is an ideal partner for the refrigeration and air conditioning industries. We are continuously intensifying our activities for creating innovative products to support our customers to be ready and competitive for future developments.

Our SOLKANE^® refrigerants product line offers high performance cooling solutions for the complete refrigeration and air conditioning temperature range from -80 to 30°C. Using SOLKANE^® refrigerants guarantees optimized economic and energetic performance, while maintaining the highest safety standards.

Our Solkane^® refrigerants product portfolio is now extended by the two products Solkane^® 22L, as easy replacement of R22 in existing refrigeration systems, and Solkane^® 22M, as easy replacement of R22 in existing a/c systems. Both products are “ODP 0” HFC solutions, compatible with commonly used lubricants.

As of 01.01.2010 the use of virgin R 22 as refrigerant is banned in the European Union due to EU legislation 2037 / 2000.

Solvay Fluor now offers a family of carefully selected Solkane^® refrigerants that provide for easy and cost-efficient ways to comply with this regulation until the end of your systems lifetime.

The product family contains one specific “ODP 0” HFC solution for each application field.

Solkane^® 22M is the product of choice for airconditioning systems operating at evaporation temperatures above 0 °C
