Recovered refrigerant is supply, not waste.
Gaia Cooling collects recovered refrigerant in the Netherlands and makes sure it reaches an accredited processor with the right paperwork.

For years we have handled the import of refrigerant into Europe: more than 120 ISO containers of 18,000 to 25,000 kilos each, from China, delivered across Europe. We have also spent seven years trading refrigerant import rights across Europe, the UK and the United States.
That work teaches you where supply comes from and where it runs out. Europe allows less new refrigerant every year. The systems that need it keep running. The gap between the two is recovered refrigerant, and most of it is still treated as waste rather than supply.
The industry has been around a long time, and a few established players largely set the price. We choose a different role: with the installer, not against them. Installers want to focus on their customers, not on the obligations around recovered gas. We take those off their hands, and we are open about what is and isn't possible.
Clear for every lot
Gas type, purity, quantity and location set the price. You know where you stand upfront, and we only schedule once you agree.
Paperwork first
Waste stream number, consignment note and logbook entry are right, every time. The chain is built on that.
Accredited parties
Recovery by certified technicians, transport by licensed carriers, processing by accredited plants.
Technology for less hassle
A photo of the label is enough to start. We bundle addresses into routes, so collection gets cheaper and simpler for everyone.
One quota for 27 member states, with a big step down in 2027. Reclaimed refrigerant sits outside it.
Its own quota since Brexit, with rules that diverge just enough to make every cross-border delivery a compliance question.
Its own phase-down path, where reclaimed refrigerant covers a growing share of servicing demand.
