The accolade highlights the company’s February 2026 update to its existing smartphone app, which now allows facility managers to conduct precise room assessments. This digital tool addresses a growing safety mandate: as laboratories transition to natural refrigerants to comply with evolving regulations like UL 60335-2-89, they must maintain strict volume-to-charge ratios to prevent risks associated with potential gas leaks. The application automates the complex calculations required to confirm that room dimensions meet safety thresholds for flammable substances.
