Note on R134a Refrigerant

R134a is a hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerant subject to phase-down under the Kigali Amendment to the Montreal Protocol. It remains legal for use in existing equipment in Australia. Exporters shipping to the European Union or other markets with stricter HFC restrictions should confirm destination-market compliance before purchase for repeated export runs.
