Halon 1301 Recycling Center

Halon gas is a suppression agent that does not leave any residue and quickly suppresses fires, making it a popular choice for museums, data centers, and electronic equipment support. Developed in the 1940s and 50s, it was soon widespread across fire suppression systems, especially when sensitive equipment was involved, due to its effective fire suppression capabilities. Halons are still used in the aviation industry and by the military.

However, halon gas is a Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC) whose manufacturing has ceased, due in part to CFC's ability to deplete the Ozone layer and its resulting health effects on humans. Fortunately, there are now more effective, healthier, and environmentally friendly alternatives for modern fire suppression agents.
