Hurckman Mechanical is excited to share emerging types of innovations in the Industrial Refrigeration sector in Insight Publications’ 2025 Champion of Innovations.
The article explores how carbon dioxide CO2 refrigeration offers a smarter, more sustainable alternative to traditional synthetic systems. Synthetic refrigerants can have a global warming potential (GWP) as high as 3,900. Whereas natural refrigerants like CO2, which have a GWP of 1.
We custom-engineer energy-efficient solutions to help businesses lower emissions, reduce energy costs, and stay ahead of regulatory changes. All while improving system performance and long-term reliability.
These environmentally friendly systems aren’t just good for the planet, they’re good for business. CO2 absorbs heat efficiently, helping facilities maintain precise pressure and temperature levels in even the most demanding industrial environments.
Compared to traditional commercial refrigeration methods, CO2 systems can also offer higher efficiency and lower system operation costs over time. They also have no ozone depletion potential (ODP). This makes them a good choice for companies that want to reduce their overall environmental impact.
Since 1953, Hurckman has delivered trusted mechanical solutions that put performance, safety, and innovation first. We’ve grown alongside our customers by offering smart, forward-looking systems built to last. We root our innovation process in solving real-world problems. Combining proven engineering with the kind of disruptive innovations that help reshape business models for the better.
This change from high-GWP refrigerants shows the rising need for systems. These systems cut greenhouse gas emissions and still work well. Hurckman helps clients move to solutions that focus on sustainability, following rules, and improving system performance. This includes high-efficiency cooling systems and complete design-build projects.
We take pride in receiving recognition alongside other leaders in the industry. We are excited to help create a better and more sustainable future for Wisconsin and beyond.
