PFX Group (Recochem and KOST USA), a global leader in thermal management technology and heat transfer fluids (HTF), will exhibit at the 2026 AHR Expo, the premier event for the HVACR industry, taking place Feb. 2-4 in Las Vegas.

At the Expo, PFX Group will feature its SOLUTHERM portfolio at the Recochem booth #SU584, highlighting advanced thermal management fluids engineered to support evolving HVAC system demands, from traditional primary and secondary loop applications to high-density liquid cooling environments, including data centers.

As the HVACR industry navigates regulatory changes, evolving materials and higher system performance requirements, effective thermal management has become more critical than ever. This is especially true in data centers, where rising power densities and round-the-clock operation demand precise, reliable cooling to protect equipment, maintain uptime and improve overall energy efficiency.

The SOLUTHERM product line is designed to address these challenges, offering fully formulated glycol-based heat transfer fluids that enhance system efficiency, provide protection against extreme temperature fluctuations and help safeguard equipment through robust corrosion protection. Select SOLUTHERM solutions also support sustainability initiatives, including biodegradable formulations and options aligned with LEED building requirements.

“HVAC and data center cooling are no longer separate conversations. As computing power increases and buildings become more energy intensive, thermal management is becoming a connective tissue between digital infrastructure and the built environment. That’s the shift SOLUTHERM is designed for,” said Jerome Dujoux, vice president of branding and innovation, PFX Group.

Solutions on Display at AHR Expo Include:

  • SOLUTHERM PG HD and EG HD Heat Transfer Fluids
     Heavy-duty, fully formulated propylene glycol- or ethylene glycol-based fluids ideal for demanding HVAC applications such as high-rise buildings, hospitals, universities and other mission-critical facilities.
  • SOLUTHERM Direct Liquid Cooling (DLC) Solutions
     Advanced thermal fluids engineered specifically for data centers, servers, and high-performance computing environments. Already in use within select Lenovo, Intel, and Dell systems, SOLUTHERM DLC solutions help manage heat generated by ever-increasing power densities – in operating temperatures of -60°F/-51°C to 325°F / 162°C – improving system reliability and operational efficiency.
  • SOLUTHERM PG HD LEED Heat Transfer Fluids
     Sustainable, bio-based propylene glycol solutions that significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions during production while lowering environmental toxicity. These silicate-free fluids meet ASTM D8039 corrosion testing standards, providing reliable multi-metal protection.
  • SOLUTHERM PG AL Safe Heat Transfer Fluids
     Fully formulated propylene glycol-based fluids specifically designed for systems containing aluminum components, including boilers, water heaters and heat exchangers.

“Heat transfer fluids are often treated as a commodity when in reality, they influence energy efficiency, equipment lifespan and system reliability more than most people realize,” said Tom Corrigan, director of research and development, PFX Group. “We see thermal management as a strategic decision and that’s why SOLUTHERM is engineered for specific applications and backed with ongoing support.”
