Global HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) Refrigerants Market Growth 2025-2031
Description
The global HFC (hydrofluorocarbon) Refrigerants market size is predicted to grow from US$ 3867 million in 2025 to US$ 4676 million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of 3.2% from 2025 to 2031.
The impact of the latest U.S. tariff measures and the corresponding policy responses from countries worldwide on market competitiveness, regional economic performance, and supply chain configurations will be comprehensively evaluated in this report.
Refrigerants are generally in the fluid form and are used in a heat pump or refrigeration process. They primarily are of three types: Chlorofluorocarbons (CFC), Hydro chlorofluorocarbons (HCFC), and Hydro-fluorocarbons (HFC). All these types are believed to be hazardous to environment. HFCs are third generation of CFCs which do not deplete ozone layer, but are potentially greenhouse gases.
Hydrofluorocarbon (HFC), any of several organic compounds composed of hydrogen, fluorine, and carbon. HFCs are produced synthetically and are used primarily as refrigerants. They became widely used for this purpose beginning in the late 1980s, with the introduction of the Montreal Protocol, which phased out the use of chemicals such as halons and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that contribute to the depletion of Earth’s ozone layer. However, while HFCs have an ozone depletion potential of zero, they are potent greenhouse gases, and thus their manufacture and use became increasingly regulated in the 21st century.
In general, HFCs are relatively nonflammable, chemically stable, and nonreactive. Many are colorless, odorless gases, but some—such as HFC-365mfc (1, 1, 1, 3, 3-pentafluorobutane)—are liquids at room temperature. As refrigerants, HFCs are used in a wide variety of cooling systems, from refrigerators and freezers to automotive air-conditioning units. HFCs are also used as blowing agents in the production of polymer foams; as firefighting agents (having replaced halons); as solvents in cleaning products for plastics and metals and in plasma etching for semiconductor technology; and as propellants in metered-dose inhalers prescribed for the treatment of asthma.
The most popular hydro-fluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants for new commercial Air Conditioner systems include R-410A and R-136a.
Global major players of HFC refrigerant are Chemours, Arkema, Daikin.The top 5 companies hold a share about 50%.China is the largest market, with a share about 30%, followed by North America and Europe with the share about 27% and 20%.In terms of product, R-134a is the largest segment, with a share about 37%. And in terms of application, the largest application is air conditioner, followed by automotive air conditioner.
