Carrier Transicold supports TITAN Containers’ low-GWP refrigerant transition with OptimaLINE and NaturaLINE refrigeration units


Carrier Transicold has secured an order from TITAN Containers in the Netherlands for OptimaLINE™ units with ready-to-use low-global warming potential (GWP) refrigerant R-1234yf, alongside NaturaLINE® units that use carbon dioxide (CO₂) as refrigerant. Carrier Transicold is part of Carrier Global Corporation, a global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions.

The order reflects Carrier Transicold’s commitment to delivering sustainable refrigeration solutions that meet customer expectations, while supporting the industry’s transition toward lower-GWP technologies. TITAN Containers is among the early adopters of OptimaLINE systems featuring a triple-refrigerant-ready refrigeration system.


As the container shipping industry accelerates its transition toward lower-GWP refrigerants and compliance with EU F-Gas regulations, Carrier Transicold’s triple-refrigerant-capable OptimaLINE units offer flexibility by supporting non-fluorinated refrigerant R-1234yf. The units are delivered fully charged from Carrier Transicold’s Singapore manufacturing facility, eliminating on-site charging, accelerating commissioning, and lowering total installation effort. This approach enables customers to deploy faster with confidence while meeting ISO and A2L refrigerant requirements.
Complementing the OptimaLINE units, Carrier Transicold’s NaturaLINE technology utilises R-744, also known as CO₂, a natural refrigerant with a GWP of 1. These units add to TITAN Containers’ growing fleet of environmentally responsible refrigerated containers.

Lukas Bentsson, COO at TITAN Containers, underscored the company’s commitment to environmentally responsible fleet management:

“As regulatory requirements tighten and the industry moves toward more sustainable refrigeration solutions, it is important for us to transition our fleet accordingly. Adopting low-GWP refrigerants allows us to reduce our environmental footprint while continuing to provide reliable, high-performance solutions for our customers.”

In addition to supplying equipment, Carrier Transicold is supporting TITAN Containers’ transition through dedicated technical training delivered to its teams across multiple countries. The training programme covers the safe operation and maintenance of OptimaLINE units charged with R-1234yf, as well as NaturaLINE systems using CO₂. By strengthening in-house capabilities, Carrier Transicold is helping TITAN Containers ensure consistent performance, safety, and regulatory compliance throughout the lifecycle of its low-GWP refrigeration assets.

Kay Henze, account manager, global container at Carrier Transicold, highlighted the company’s lifecycle approach to customer support:

“Our role goes beyond delivering refrigeration units and includes supporting customers throughout the lifecycle of their equipment. By working closely with TITAN Containers and delivering targeted service training for R-1234yf, we are helping their teams build the capabilities needed to operate these systems efficiently and safely across different markets.”
