Session description
This presentation explores the deployment of an A2L refrigerant-based commercial refrigeration system at the new Iceland store in Queensferry, UK, developed in collaboration between Solstice Advanced Materials and Iceland’s refrigeration engineering team.
Solstice Advanced Materials will present the design rationale and safe application of R455A in a live retail environment, focusing on system architecture, risk mitigation, and compliance with evolving F-gas regulations. R455A, an A2L low-GWP refrigerant, offers a strong balance between environmental performance and efficiency, while requiring careful management of flammability classification, charge minimization, and ventilation design. These challenges were addressed through robust engineeri ...
