Market Insight: Arkema Forane is often perceived as a “Step-up” brand in Nigeria. This is the “Technician’s Choice” for high-value repairs. Using genuine Forane® R-22 from Elins Nigeria prevents the high discharge temperatures often caused by “mixed” or “low-grade” generic gases found in local markets.
Tech Note: R-22 is under global phase-out, prices may fluctuate based on availability. Stocking up on a trusted brand like Forane® ensures that your existing systems continue to run at peak efficiency without the risk of incompatibility.
