Opteon In Action: A Partnership for Sustainable Hockey Options

After every NHL® hockey game, the ice surfaces are graded by the referees as well as representatives from both teams. For the NHL®, it’s their responsibility to ensure all aspects of League facilities that impact player performance and safety meet the highest standards. That’s why Denver’s Pepsi Center chose Opteon, the refrigerant that gives you stadium-standard performance regardless of the size of your rink.
