Why choose Kilfrost for heat transfer fluids and deicing/anti-icing solutions?
As a family business, based in Northumberland, UK, we’re proud of our heritage and the difference we have made to the world. We continue to make that difference through insight, ingenuity and innovation in chemical manufacturing.
Pioneers
More than 90 years ago, Joseph Halbert, inspired by the humble snowdrop and with a passion for football, invented a world-first deicing fluid: initially, this was used to deice football pitches, before it was applied to aircraft… and had a world-changing impact.
Performance driven
Applying our understanding of rheology, we have developed a range of fluids that outperform MEG and MPG by maintaining viscosity, even at lower temperatures.
Environmentally conscious
Through intense research and development, we’ve been able to develop a range of fluids that are less toxic and corrosive than the alternatives. This helps to protect both the environment and the equipment that the fluids are used in.
