Forward Guidance
Hudson Technologies anticipates the phasedown of HFCs will create a significant opportunity for reclaimed refrigerants, and they are well-positioned to capitalize on the shift towards sustainable cooling technologies.
Positive Outlook
- The EPA's final rule confirming the mandated 40% baseline reduction in HFCs beginning in 2024 presents a tremendous opportunity.
- The supply of virgin HFCs will become limited.
- Reclaimed refrigerants will be needed to meet demand from the large installed base of HFC equipment.
- Increased focus around proposed regulations promoting the use of more environmentally friendly cooling technology and refrigerants benefits Hudson.
- Hudson is ideally positioned with its reclamation technology, conversion and servicing capabilities.
