The 2023 China Refrigeration Exhibition has concluded successfully, with the theme “Focusing on Global Heating and Cooling, Committed to System Innovation.” The event brought together nearly 1,100 industry brands from 19 countries and regions. At this year’s show, Ganghe Petroleum showcased its ten major product series—comprising a total of 36 grades of refrigeration lubricants—highlighting its R&D achievements and innovative capabilities in the field of synthetic lubricants. We look back at the significant outcomes Ganghe Petroleum achieved at this exhibition across three key areas: booth design, product philosophy, and packaging.
The 34th Shanghai International Refrigeration Exhibition
The 2023 China Refrigeration Exhibition has concluded successfully, with the theme “Focusing on Global Heating and Cooling, Committed to System Innovation.” The event brought together nearly 1,100 industry brands from 19 countries and regions. At this year’s show, Ganghe Petroleum showcased its ten major product lines—comprising 36 grades of refrigeration lubricants—highlighting its R&D achievements and innovative capabilities in the field of synthetic lubricants. We look back at the significant outcomes Ganghe Petroleum achieved at this exhibition across three key areas: booth design, product philosophy, and packaging.
Just reviewed the lubrication booth design.
This year’s refrigeration exhibition and the petroleum booth were designed around the themes of sophistication, simplicity, and grandeur. The ceiling height stands at 4.5 meters, with an integrated layout that includes a client‑meeting area, an oil‑sample display zone, a packaging showcase, and a product‑information section—offering practicality, visual appeal, and functionality all in one. The entire installation took two days to complete; let’s take a look back at the booth‑building process.
Just with the SynCold® design philosophy
At the 34th Shanghai Refrigeration Exhibition, it is clear that environmentally friendly refrigerants with zero ODP and low GWP are the trend shaping the industry’s future. Currently, major refrigerant manufacturers are actively promoting third-generation refrigerants—such as R134a, R507, and R410a—which dominate the market. Meanwhile, fourth-generation refrigerants are presently used only in certain high-end foreign compressor brands, including centrifugal and rotary compressors.
In summary, with the exception of certain large‑scale industrial refrigeration systems that use NH₃ (ammonia) and CO₂ (carbon dioxide) as refrigerants, the industry is trending toward greater commercialization and higher‑end applications. Consequently, lubricants that can extend compressor operating life, reduce system failures, and lower maintenance and operational costs are increasingly aligned with the industry’s evolving needs—this is precisely the rationale behind Ganghe Lubricant’s development of its polyol ester and synthetic cycloalkane product lines.
Just now, the concept behind the SynCold® product line.
The modern refrigeration industry is experiencing rapid growth, with China now emerging as the world’s second-largest market for refrigeration equipment and a major producer. Against the backdrop of increasingly pressing energy and environmental challenges, global policies promoting low‑carbon emissions are driving the sector toward greater sustainability, making eco‑friendly, high‑efficiency refrigerants a key priority for manufacturers. To meet future trends, refrigerant producers are developing new products with zero ODP and low GWP values; as these next‑generation refrigerants replace older formulations, refrigeration equipment manufacturers are also imposing ever stricter technical requirements on lubricants. As a manufacturer of lubricants for refrigeration compressors, Ganghe Petroleum is actively advancing green refrigeration lubrication, focusing on the lubrication needs of equipment using new refrigerants. Its products utilize plant‑based, biodegradable raw materials, ensuring compliance with the stringent performance specifications demanded by equipment suppliers.
Introduction to the Lubricant Product Line
Ganghe Petroleum specializes in the R&D and manufacturing of lubricants for refrigeration compressors. Its SynCold® line of refrigeration oils comprises five major categories: polyol ester, naphthenic, alkylbenzene, polyalphaolefin, and polyether.
A one-sentence introduction to SynCold®’s ten product lines.
01. SynCold-RLD
Low-viscosity polyol ester products, primarily used in small and medium-sized reciprocating compressors, are compatible with the third-generation refrigerants currently being promoted.
02. SynCold-RL
The viscosity range spans from ISO 32 to ISO 320, catering to high‑power compressor equipment such as screw and centrifugal types, and is compatible with the third‑generation refrigerants currently being promoted.
03.SynCold-RLT
This product is quite specialized: it is a polyol ester refrigeration lubricant that is miscible with HFC (third-generation refrigerants) and CO2 (carbon dioxide) refrigerants, with viscosity available only in ISO 68.
04.SynCold-GS
Synthetic cycloalkane-based refrigeration and lubrication fluid, specifically designed for refrigeration compressor applications in commercial and residential air-conditioning systems, compatible with second-generation CFC and HCFC refrigerants.
05. SynCold-DRA H
High-performance naphthenic mineral oil products, emphasizing cost-effectiveness, are primarily used in large-scale industrial refrigeration systems that employ ammonia (NH₃) as the refrigerant.
06.SynCold-DRG
Synthetic cycloalkane-based refrigeration lubricant, specifically designed for hermetic (piston-type) refrigeration compressor systems, and particularly suitable for R600a (isobutane) refrigerant.
07.SynCold-AB
Synthetic alkylbenzene refrigeration and lubrication oil, primarily used in reciprocating and rotary compressors, compatible with second-generation HCFC refrigerants.
08. SynCold-SH
Semi-synthetic polyalphaolefin refrigeration and lubrication oil, primarily used in large industrial systems that employ ammonia (NH₃) as the refrigerant.
09.SynCold-PAO
Fully synthetic polyalphaolefin refrigeration and lubricant, primarily intended for cascade systems using NH₃ (ammonia) or NH₃ & CO₂ (carbon dioxide) as refrigerants.
10. SynCold-PAG
Synthetic polyether refrigeration and lubrication oil, primarily used in small commercial air-conditioning systems and vehicle‑mounted air-conditioning systems, compatible with environmentally friendly refrigerants such as R134a.
