Description
Glysofor E is an environmentally friendly antifreeze and heat transfer medium based on bioethanol in combination with corrosion inhibitors and stabilizers.
It is typically used in geothermal and heat pump systems, but also in cooling and heating systems.
Glysofor E is supplied ready to fill with an antifreeze value of -10 degrees Celsius.
Glysofor E is produced from renewable raw materials, is biodegradable and environmentally friendly.
Glysofor E is free of nitrite, amine, phosphate, silicate and borate.
Typical areas of application
Geothermal and heat pump systems, cooling and heating systems.
