Industrial Propellant

Solstice® Propellant

A climate-friendly alternative to HFCs and HCFCs, our Solstice® propellant offers performance similar to HFC-134a, and is a near drop-in replacement with only minimal changes required to formulations and equipment.

Overview
A climate-friendly alternative to HFCs and HCFCs, our Solstice® propellant offers performance similar to HFC-134a, and is a near drop-in replacement with only minimal changes required to formulations and equipment. With our low GWP propellant, aerosols are back in favor.
