Medical Propellant
Solstice® Air
As a near-zero global warming potential (GWP) propellant, our Solstice® Air offers performance similar to HFC-134a and is a near drop-in replacement with only minimal changes required to equipment.
Solstice Air is a breakthrough for pressurized metered dose inhalers (pMDIs). A non-flammable and low global warming potential (GWP) alternative to hydrofluorocarbons, it is non-ozone-depleting, VOC-exempt (U.S. EPA and CARB), with an ultra-low GWP of less than 1.
