Every year, 50% of #vaccines 💉 are wasted globally because of a jeopardised cold chain. #Fgases are the answer to this issue. Learn more in the video below ⬇️

⏰ This month's launch of a public consultation on proposed PFAS restrictions will be a critical opportunity to make the case for continued access to some HFC refrigerants for cooling ❄️. Read the RAC magazine article on it via this link👇 lnkd.in/grDCqmMs

Following the European Parliament Plenary vote on the #FGasRegulation today, European Fluorocarbons Technical Committee (EFCTC) members have released the following statement - read more ⬇️

#Fgases are an essential part of #vaccine programmes 💉 Why? To safeguard their potency, most #vaccines need to be kept refrigerated. F-gases are a safe, energy-efficient solution that enables an uninterrupted vaccine #coldchain. Learn more ⬇️

EFCTC, as part of an alliance of 10 leading European associations and global partners, responded to the 5th of April European Council’s announcement on the agreed mandate to begin negotiations on the F-gas Regulation Revision. Read the full statement: lnkd.in/eG2Q8WPE

Europe is on the road to net-zero by 2050 thanks to the EU Green Deal. As a driver of the #REPowerEU strategy, heat pumps play a key role in Europe's decarbonisation. Without F-gases, we are putting Europe's #heatpumps strategy at risk.

Temperature control in all new cars relies on F-gases. But there's more: battery cooling for hybrid and #electricvehicles also depends on F-gases 🚗🔌 Thanks to their technical performance, HFOs are crucial to the manufacturing and functioning of #EVs. Watch and learn more ⬇️

Did you know that F-gases play a crucial role in the #heatpumps refrigeration cycle? Heat pumps contribute to the increasing use of renewable energy. Thanks to F-gases, we can increase the use of renewable energy, thereby facilitating Europe's climate goals.

HFOs are the refrigerant of choice for most hybrid and #electricvehicles manufacturers in the EU 🇪🇺 By 2035, #EVs will be the only new cars sold in Europe 🚗🔌 That's why F-gases will stay crucial for the production of environmentally-friendly vehicles. Watch the video ⬇️

#EVs rely on HFOs to cool their batteries during the charging process and to support their heating system. Without F-gases, we couldn't sustain the growth of #electricvehicles' popularity. Let's enable the automotive industry to grow sustainably 🚗🔌 Watch the video ⬇️

The future of Europe's automotive sector is electric 🚗🔌 Did you know that F-gases play a crucial role in the production and functioning of #EVs? 💡 In fact, HFOs allow EV batteries to cool during the charging process. Learn why we need F-gases ⬇️

❔ Did you know that #propane is an industrially produced gas just like many other #refrigerants? euractiv.com/section/energy… 💡 Learn more here: fluorocarbons.org/news/efctc-res…

On this #WorldRefrigerationDay, we celebrate the success of the current #FgasRegulation. Our industry remains committed to doing its part to comply with the current HFC phasedown while being prepared to contribute to the EU’s #decarbonisation goals 👏 #WREFD23 #NextGenCooling

🇹🇭 👋 Hello from Thailand! EFCTC is delighted to attend the 45th meeting of the Open-ended Working Group of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol (#OEWG45), taking place in Bangkok over the course of this week. Almost 36 years after the #MontrealProtocol, it is crucial to

📅 Today, EFCTC attended an event "Making a Success of the European Union's F-Gas Regulation" as part of the side events programme of the 45th meeting of the Open-ended Working Group of the Parties to the #MontrealProtocol (#OEWG45). Thanks to EPEE for convening

That's a wrap 👏 EFCTC is delighted to have taken part in the 45th meeting of the Open-ended Working Group of the Parties to the Montreal Protocol (#OEWG45) in Bangkok. We are looking forward to continuing the timely discussions initiated last week around strengthening the

💡 In 2020, the European Commission began the process to review the current #FgasRegulation. EFCTC and its members value the work and contribution from all stakeholders to date on the Regulation. Take a look at the summary of what has happened over the past two years 👇

Low GWP F-gases are essential in #commercialrefrigeration to keep food fresh and safe to eat. Without F-gases, food would spoil quickly and disease would spread easily.

Low GWP F-gases play an important role as a propellant in #inhalers for asthma and other lung-related conditions. #LowGWP F-gases are used by medical manufacturers because they are safe, stable and non-toxic.

Did you know that #lowGWP F-gases are used to safely power #airconditioning units in most new cars sold in the EU, including EVs? F-gases are used as refrigerants to provide cooling, demisting and humidity control, as well as heating, defrosting and air-filtering.
