Additional positive effects
There are several organizational benefits to using natural refrigerants
Lower energy consumption
First of all, natural refrigerants help spare the environment. Using them in your process makes the cooling system much more sustainable and future-proof.
Natural refrigerants use up less energy, and maintenance costs are considerably lower. Natural refrigerants are also lower in price compared to chemical refrigerants.
And last but not least: when your installation and choice of the natural refrigerant match, mandatory inspections are no longer needed, avoiding keeping those time-consuming logbooks.
KOMA creates custom made solutions
We adapt our approach to your specific needs to create the best final products.
With 85+ years of experience
in conditioning we have a lot of in-house knowledge and understanding of the bakery and food processing industry.
The use of natural refrigerants in conditioning systems
To make the switch to natural refrigerants, it's essential to know which refrigerant matches your current or future installations. Also, at KOMA we are able to carry out tests to guarantee product safety and monitor installations 24/7. This way, we can detect and correct errors long before the health of workers is at risk.
At KOMA, we can supply all installations for your refrigeration & conditioning needs. Let us help you find the best fit of natural refrigerants for your installation.
"Following a 2018 visit to two companies that use KOMA systems, including one with CO2 refrigeration, it became clear – relatively quickly – that a CO2 booster system was what we needed.”

Our CO2 solutions: future-proof and environmentally friendly
At KOMA, reaching sustainability through efficient and environmentally friendly processes is a central topic. Cooling technology, in particular, consumes a lot of energy and is one of the polluters of our environment.
With our CO2 solutions, we offer higher reliability and product quality:
- Separate low-pressure and high-pressure systems.
- Adding an emergency cooling system in case of failure of the system to prevent the release of refrigerants.
- Cascade system for all products concerning high outside temperature installations.
- Control system in all conditioning units to reduce delta T.
- Intelligent compressor group enables optimum part-load operation.
We are happy to help you with customized solutions on natural refrigerants.
“CO2 was a new refrigerant for us, but actually, if you want to be future-proof, you can't decide any other way than to work with natural cold.”
Louis van Gelder
Technical director Amarant Bakeries (The Netherlands)
“The choice suggested by KOMA, to build an all-CO2 plant, has certainly increased the initial investment, but we are convinced that in the medium to long term, we will have lower energy costs and greater attention to the environment.”
