In a country where air conditioning is not a luxury but a necessity, refrigerants keep us comfortable through relentless heat. However, behind that comfort lies a hidden environmental threat, one that significantly contributes to climate change and ozone depletion.
At Enviroserve, addressing refrigerant emissions is not just good practice. It’s an urgent responsibility.
The Hidden Impact of Refrigerants
Refrigerants such as R410a, R134a, and R22 are commonly used in cooling systems across homes, offices, and industries in the UAE. While essential, many of these gases—especially hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)—have a high global warming potential.
To put this in perspective: 1 kg of R410a = 2 tonnes of CO₂-equivalent emissions. That’s the same as driving over 10,000 kilometers in a petrol-powered car.
These gases also have long atmospheric lifespans and contribute to the thinning of the ozone layer, increasing human health risks, and accelerating climate instability.
Why the UAE Must Act
Refrigerant gases are estimated to contribute 4 to 6 million metric tons of CO₂-equivalent emissions annually in the UAE, accounting for up to 3% of the country’s total national greenhouse gas emissions.
To combat this, the UAE has committed to:
- Phasing down HFCs under the Kigali Amendment
- Achieving Net Zero by 2050
- Promoting energy-efficient building codes
- Supporting public-private collaboration for greener infrastructure
But policies alone can’t solve the problem. It takes operational action, led by forward-thinking businesses.
Our Response: Free Refrigerant Gas Recovery (Until End of Q3)
To support national environmental goals, Enviroserve is offering free refrigerant gas recovery services across the UAE—available until the end of Q3 2025.
This initiative enables companies to reduce their environmental impact while ensuring their cooling systems are managed responsibly and compliantly.
How the Process Works
1. Collection Our teams safely recover refrigerants using sealed, leak-proof equipment to ensure zero emissions during extraction.
2. Purification Recovered gases undergo rigorous purification to eliminate moisture, acidity, and oil. We restore refrigerants to 99.99% purity—comparable to new.
3. Testing and Reporting Each batch is third-party tested, and clients receive detailed before-and-after reports confirming quality and compliance.
4. Reuse or Secure Storage Gases are either returned for reuse or stored under controlled conditions, following global safety protocols.
What We Handle
We recover, reclaim, and test a wide variety of refrigerants, including:
R134a, R22, R404a, R407c, R410a, R123, R600, R11, R417a. Each is tested to meet strict moisture, acidity, and purity thresholds.
This is More Than a Service: It’s a Climate Action
In today’s climate context, refrigerant recovery is not just about regulatory compliance or cost efficiency. It’s a direct, high-impact climate solution. Every kilogram recovered is a step toward a cleaner atmosphere, a safer community, and a more sustainable United Arab Emirates.
