Global Natural Refrigerants Industry Growth and Trends Forecast to 2031

Summary

Natural refrigerants are natural substances that serve as refrigerants in refrigeration systems (including refrigerators, HVAC, and air conditioning). They are alternatives to hydrofluorocarbon (HFC), hydro chlorofluorocarbon (HCFC) and chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) based refrigerants. Unlike other refrigerants, they are not synthetic chemicals and can sometimes be found in nature. Natural refrigerants are chemicals which occur in nature's bio-chemical processes. They do not deplete the ozone layer and make a negligible - or zero in the case of R717 (ammonia) - contribution to global warming. The high efficiency of natural refrigerants also means that they make a lower indirect contribution to global warming. They are not only used due to environmental sustainability as some applications are better suited to a particular natural refrigerant.
