Hillphoenix Leads the Pack in GreenChill Store Certifications

CONYERS, Ga., May 31, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Hillphoenix, a pioneer in designing environmentally sustainable refrigeration systems, is committed to collaborating with customers to develop and install advanced sustainable technologies for their organizations. Throughout the past year, Hillphoenix refrigeration equipment is installed in 87% of the total number of GreenChill certified stores.

The EPA's GreenChill Certification is a program for food retailers that recognizes stores for utilizing environmentally friendly refrigeration systems that maintain very low refrigerant charge and emission levels. These certifications — Platinum, Gold and Silver levels — benefit retailers on both an economic and environmental standpoint, as well as exemplifying themselves as stewards in the communities they serve.

"Our commitment to developing and further improving these technologies illustrates to our customers and the industry, that we are dedicated to providing quality, sustainable products to help companies future-proof their business," said Scott Martin , director of business development and industry relations.

Hillphoenix has a consistent record of advancing sustainable refrigeration:

• In the mid-1990s, the company introduced one of the first cooling technologies to reduce global-warming emissions.
• Many systems shipped by Hillphoenix use Second Nature natural refrigerants.
• Hillphoenix's improvements in alternative refrigerants and energy efficiency have helped remove over 2.5 billion pounds of harmful emissions in the last two decades.
