About A-Gas in the Americas

A-Gas is a world leader in the supply and lifecycle management of refrigerants and associated products and services. Through our first-class recovery, reclamation, and repurposing processes, we capture refrigerants and fire protection gases for future re-use or safe destruction, preventing harmful release into the atmosphere.

For over 30 years, A-Gas has supported our customers and partners by supplying lower global warming gases and by:

• Recovering refrigerants through our premier refrigerant recovery service, Rapid Recovery®. Our EPA-Certified technicians provide fast on-site recoveries, complete with industry-leading EPA documentation.

• Purchasing "used"​ Halons, CFCs, HCFCs, and HFCs and reclaiming them until they meet internationally accepted standards, such as AHRI-700. This material is then “banked” in our long-term storage facilities until it is needed by critical users.

• Selling new replacement agents to users who no longer require Halons and CFC refrigerants.

• Offering 24-Hour Clean Agent recharges for System Bottles.

• Supplying blowing agents to the foam insulation markets.

• Destroying used fluorocarbon gases and other waste streams when the future re-use is no longer possible. A-Gas PyroPlas® is a United Nations-approved, TEAP-certified technology that delivers the industry’s highest guaranteed destruction efficiency (99.9999%).

• Testing refrigerants and fire protection agents in one of our on-site AHRI-certified laboratories.

Our facilities are located in the US (Bowling Green, Ohio; Rhome, Texas; and Peoria, Arizona), Canada (Stoney Creek, Ontario), and México (Guadalajara, Jalisco).

If you have Halons or refrigerants to sell, or if you need assistance recovering refrigerant or recharging a system bottle, please contact us today!
