At Hudson Technologies, we focus our full attention on refrigerants and how they impact chiller performance. From refrigerant sales and reclamation services to on-site problem solving and energy-saving assessments, we lead the way in ensuring that your systems operate at peak performance. If your needs are as simple as buying or selling refrigerants, we do so in whatever containers you need – from as small as 30 pounds to as large as a rail car. If your needs involve recycling (reclaiming refrigerants), we handle that too. In fact, we offer a one-stop shop reclamation service through our all-inclusive Platinum Reclamation Program. Programs like this have positioned us as the largest reclamation company in the country. Yet these aren’t the only things that make Hudson unique. We’re one of the only companies to provide on-site refrigerant services on a nationwide basis – no matter where you are. We’re the industry leader for refrigerant-side services in emergency situations.

In many cases, our services can be performed online, saving you costly downtime.

This information can help you to stay within budget while avoiding costly emergency shutdowns. Through the use of our patented software model, our highly skilled team of chemists and engineers optimizes your system while lowering your operating costs by reducing your system’s energy consumption.
