Eco Scandic – kestävää kylmäainehuoltoa ja kiertotalousratkaisuja

Comprehensive solutions for lifecycle refrigerant management (LRM)

Reclaimed HFC refrigerants including R404A, R407C, R410A, R134a, R422D and R32, as well as virgin HFO refrigerants such as R449A, R448A, R1234yf, R1234ze and R452A.

Our reclaimed refrigerants are recovered as raw material from across the Nordic region and reclaimed to virgin-grade quality in Helsinki in accordance with AHRI-700 and ISO 11650-1999 standards.

Eco Scandic is the first and largest company in Northern Europe recovering and reclaiming refrigerants.

AHRI-700 is a globally recognized standard that defines refrigerant purity requirements and approved testing methods.

The Cylinder Tracking System (CTS) is a unique electronic tracking system for F-gases. The system makes regulatory reporting easy and transparent.

Here you will find requirements and instructions for refrigerant recovery, as well as shipping information and a step-by-step instruction video.

Order free recovery cylinders through the CTS system or by email. Available cylinder sizes: 12.5L, 61L and 950L.

We compensate for recovered refrigerants. Contact us or fill in the form.

Responsible refrigerant waste management

We are licensed for the handling of hazardous chemicals and operate under an environmental permit with approved End-of-Waste criteria. We are certified in accordance with ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and EMAS (Eco-Management and Audit Scheme).

Refrigerant can be classified as reclaimed when it has undergone a purification process with equipment compliant with AHRI-740 and ISO 11650 standards, followed by laboratory analysis confirming that it meets the AHRI-700 quality standard.

How refrigerant recovery & reclamation works

Eco Scandicin kiertotalousmalli pidentää kylmäaineiden elinkaarta ja vähentää päästöjä.

Step 1: Recovery

We deliver recovery cylinders to your selected location in the Nordics free of charge. Fill the cylinders and request collection when they are ready.

Step 2: Analysis and Reclamation

The recovery cylinders are delivered to our facility in Helsinki, where the refrigerant is analyzed and recyclable refrigerant is reclaimed to like-new quality.

Step 3: Quality Control

After reclamation, the quality is verified in our laboratory in strict accordance with AHRI-700 quality protocols.

Step 4: Compensation or buy-back

Once the refrigerant is certified, an official quality certificate is issued. You can either receive a compensation or purchase it back as reclaimed refrigerant.

Step 5: Repeat

With our circular economy model, you may avoid expensive destruction fees, minimize CO₂ emissions and generate value from recovered refrigerants.
