Verifying Ozone Depleting Substances Destruction

Independent Certification of A-Gas's Facility Standards

The Situation

A-Gas is a global leader in refrigerant lifecycle management, operating an Ozone Depleting Substances (ODS) destruction facility with a track record of high Destruction and Removal Efficiency (DRE). As part of A-Gas’s commitment to transparency and third-party verification, Anthesis was engaged to conduct a formal review of one of A-Gas’s US facilities against the requirements of the Montreal Protocol’s Technology and Economic Assessment Panel (TEAP) DRE requirements.

This certification process reflects a proactive approach to compliance – ensuring facilities not only meet global standards but also continue to anticipate them.

Solution

Working to a defined timeline, Anthesis’ specialist consultants conducted structured interviews, detailed document reviews, and a comprehensive on-site assessment. The review examined technical performance data, including DRE results and test reports, alongside physical processes, management systems, and record-keeping practices.

Anthesis produced a clear compliance report of the evidence and a formal certificate, providing independent validation of A-Gas’s operational standards.

Anthesis brought the technical depth and structured methodology this kind of certification demands. Their team worked efficiently alongside ours, and the process gave us independent validation that our facility operates to the highest standards in the industry.

Impact

The facility was confirmed compliant for a further three years, reinforcing A-Gas’s alignment with regulatory expectations within the ODS destruction sector. The review also identified targeted process optimisations that further strengthen A-Gas’s culture of continuous improvement, ensuring their DRE performance continues to exceed protocol requirements.
