Freon Refrigeration
Coolcare continues to provide expert design, installation, and servicing of Freon-based refrigeration systems across South Africa. These systems remain widely used in commercial and industrial applications, and our technicians ensure they are installed safely, maintained properly, and upgraded where required to maximise efficiency and extend operating life.
Eco-Friendly CO₂ Refrigeration
Coolcare is also one of the pioneers of CO₂ refrigeration in South Africa and remains at the forefront of delivering these sustainable solutions nationwide. We were among the first companies in the country to design, install, and maintain full CO₂ systems, and today we continue to lead the industry with specialised expertise, proven installations, and ongoing technical innovation.
Our role has been central in:
-
Introducing CO₂ technology as a sustainable alternative to Freon systems.
-
Expanding access to CO₂ refrigeration for retail, warehousing, and production facilities.
-
Training and upskilling technicians in CO₂ system design, installation, and maintenance.
-
Helping clients meet sustainability goals and comply with international legislation.
Key Advantages of CO₂ Systems:
-
Environmental Impact – A natural refrigerant with zero ozone depletion potential.
-
Food Safety – Food-grade CO₂ poses no contamination risk in the event of a leak.
-
HACCP Compliant – Ensures strict food safety and hygiene standards.
-
Centralised Efficiency – A single plant can service multiple rooms, cutting costs and simplifying maintenance.
-
Built-in Contingency – Redundancy ensures systems continue running during maintenance or repair.
-
Energy Savings – Up to 30% less energy use than conventional Freon systems.
