Cooling is becoming more essential across data centres, cold chains, buildings and industry. The challenge is meeting growing demand while reducing environmental impact throughout the product lifecycle.

The 2025 Güntner Group Sustainability Report explores how we are reducing environmental impact across the full cooling lifecycle, from the way equipment is designed and manufactured to how efficiently it operates throughout its lifetime.

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE 2025 REPORT

A snapshot of the progress, challenges and priorities covered in this year’s report.

90%+

More than 90% of our upstream and downstream Scope 3 emissions arise during the use of sold products and solutions, so this is where we focus our efforts to achieve the greatest impact.

Lower emissions intensity

Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions intensity fell by 13% in the past financial year, reflecting continued progress in operational efficiency.

Reducing water withdrawal

Total water withdrawal at our production sites was 36% lower than in 2021, with water intensity falling by almost half.

WHAT YOU WILL FIND IN THE REPORT

Key themes from our 2025 Sustainability Report - product innovation, smarter operation, resource efficiency and responsible business.

  • Natural Refrigerants adress both climate and PFAS concners

    Natural refrigerants help customers move away from synthetic refrigerants that can carry high global warming potential and, in the case of many A2L refrigerants, PFAS-related environmental concerns.

  • Adiabatic cooling decisions are backed by local operating data

    The Adiabatic Efficiency Calculator uses local weather data and current electricity and water prices for the planned site to compare savings potential against dry cooling. Since 2025, it has also been available for data-centre cooling applications.

  • Refurbished fans extend service life with customer value

    Since late 2025, refurbished fans have been collected, refurbished and marketed with the same warranty and at a reduced price.

  • The IMPACT label helps customers choose efficient solutions

    Introduced in 2024, the IMPACT label identifies efficient, innovative, resource- and energy-saving solutions. It was integrated into GPC Europe shortly after launch and now covers heat exchangers, fans, accessories, refrigerants, fluids and IoT tools.

  • IoT and AI support more efficient operation

    aicore link™ and aicore cloud™ help collect and analyse operating data so systems can be monitored and optimised more effectively. Existing systems can also be upgraded through software updates or controller replacement.

  • Expanding renewable energy generation

    Güntner Group is increasing on-site solar capacity across major production sites, with systems operating in Romania and Mexico and further installations planned in Indonesia and Hungary.

When 90%+ of value-chain emissions arise during the use phase, our focus has to be on operation. That means helping customers choose efficient equipment, operate it well, maintain it for longer and prepare for the future of cooling.
