Refra is contributing to a major new development in the European foodservice sector — the construction of a 44 129 m² depot in London. The facility is designed to become a showcase of efficiency, capacity and service in the UK. To meet its demanding refrigeration requirements, the project incorporates Refra’s advanced CO2 refrigeration systems, supporting sustainable and energy-efficient operation.
Waiting for product offers and managing scattered quotations can slow down even the easiest projects. To simplify this process, we created the new Refra Selection Tool — an online platform designed to make equipment selection, offer generation and ordering more convenient. The platform allows customers to independently choose equipment configuration and instantly generate offers online, giving quick access to continuously updated product information in one centralized environment.
Refra has introduced OASIS, a new Standard Line of water-to-water chillers and heat pumps designed as a versatile hydronic solution for highly efficient heating and cooling in commercial and industrial buildings. Built on a unified platform concept, the range includes water-to-water heat pumps and liquid-cooled chillers that share the same robust construction, advanced refrigeration technology and compact design philosophy.
Solihull, a town in the West Midlands of United Kingdom, has taken a major step toward decarbonizing its heating infrastructure with the installation of six Refra hydrocarbon heat pumps for a new 1.6 MW Energy Centre. The project will deliver district heating and hot water to local government buildings, community facilities, and educational institutions, significantly reducing carbon emissions in line with the Council’s net zero 2041 target.
The R290-based heat pump and chiller system from Refra was installed at a new Keelings Flowers’ processing facility in Dublin in 2023. Each year, millions of flower bouquets journey thousands of miles, from greenhouses and fields in places like Colombia, Kenya and the Netherlands, to customers across Europe and North America. In this global market, valued at around €15 billion ($16.9 billion) in 2015, freshness is key.
Refra air-to-water heat pumps, featuring the MVL702 magnetic expansion valve from Siemens, are able to demonstrate clear efficiency gains compared to competing systems. A comprehensive test involving a Refra reversible propane (R290) heat pump with two identical circuits housing different valve technologies demonstrates that the magnetic expansion valve helps the heat pump deliver a coefficient of performance (COP) over 16% higher.
