As the refrigerated transport industry transitions to lower-GWP refrigerants, operators face an important challenge: how to balance sustainability goals with safe, reliable cold chain performance.
Many low-GWP refrigerants belong to the A2L class, which offers reduced climate impact while introducing mild flammability considerations. In this white paper, Carrier Transicold explores a safety-by-design approach that combines engineered safeguards, rigorous manufacturing controls, leak detection technology and a patented two-stage safety response to help manage risk and support regulatory compliance.
