DEFRA has proposed tightening the UK F-gas phasedown from 2027 onwards, which will make high-GWP refrigerants harder to source and more expensive over time. For vessel operators, it makes sense to transition early.
Star International supplies a range of low-GWP refrigerant gases suitable for marine HVAC and refrigeration systems, backed by technical support and onboard servicing to keep downtime to a minimum.
Contact our team with vessel type, current refrigerant and system details, and we’ll recommend the most appropriate low-GWP option.
Note: DEFRA’s changes are currently at consultation stage; operators who prepare early will be in the strongest position once the new schedule is confirmed.
