Arteco partners with Arom-dekor Kemi to create a coolant base fluid

Arteco and the Swedish company Arom-dekor Kemi announced cooperation to unlock the environmental and economic benefits of purifying and recycling used de-icing fluids to use as base fluid in the production of coolants for automotive, industrial, and electronic applications.

Arteco is a coolant and heat transfer fluids manufacturer. At the same time, Arom-dekor Kemi is part of Vilokan Group Fluids business, which has environmental technologies that enable the purification and recycling of de-icing fluid, among other waste streams. The de-icing fluid is collected from airports in Sweden and Norway. The fluid is transported to the facility at Arlanda, Sweden, where the final purification process occurs.

“We are excited to embark on this cooperation with Arom-dekor Kemi,” said Alexandre Moireau, General Manager of Arteco.

“By combining our strengths, we unlock the potential of recycling, benefiting the environment and creating economic opportunities. Together, we help pave the way for a better shared future,” he added.

Christian Lundell CEO of Aromdekor Kemi, commented, “This strategic cooperation represents a significant milestone in our mission to recycling. Arteco, a leading coolant manufacturer in Europe, is the first customer to integrate recycled mono propylene glycol (MPG) into their coolants. We are taking an important step forward in building a more sustainable world.”

The cooperation between Arteco and Arom-dekor Kemi will optimize resource recovery and contribute to a more sustainable and cost-effective waste management system. Additionally, the recovered materials can be reintroduced into the supply chain, promoting a closed-loop approach that reduces reliance on virgin resources.
