Hudson Technologies Inc

Company Overview
History and Background
Hudson Technologies, Inc. was founded in 1993 and is headquartered in Pearl River, New York. The company has evolved from refrigerant sales and services to a broader focus on reclamation and the transition towards more environmentally sustainable refrigerant solutions.
Core Business Areas
- Refrigerant Sales: Sale of virgin and reclaimed refrigerants to HVACR contractors and end-users.
- Reclamation Services: Reclaiming used refrigerants to ARI 700 standards.
- RAAS (Refrigerant as a Service): Comprehensive refrigerant management programs, including leak detection, reporting, and lifecycle planning.
- Engineering and Consulting: Consulting services for transitioning to next-generation refrigerants and optimizing refrigerant systems.
Leadership and Structure
The company is led by Brian F. Coleman (Chairman, President & CEO). The organizational structure is typical of a publicly traded company, with functional departments such as sales, operations, finance, and engineering.
Top Products and Market Share
Key Offerings
- Reclaimed Refrigerants: Hudson Technologies is a major reclaimer of refrigerants, particularly R-22. Market share data is dynamic based on regulations and demand, revenue from this product is significant and fluctuates. Competitors include A-Gas, and other reclamation companies.
- RAAS Program: Refrigerant as a Service provides lifecycle management of refrigerants. Market share is growing but still a smaller piece of the business compared to reclamation. Competitors include larger HVAC service providers offering similar comprehensive services.
- Virgin Refrigerants: Sales of virgin refrigerants (i.e., new, not reclaimed) to support customer's need. Competitors are larger chemical companies that produce virgin refrigerants.
Market Dynamics
Industry Overview
The HVACR industry is undergoing significant changes due to environmental regulations (e.g., AIM Act in the U.S.), phasing out of high-GWP refrigerants (like R-22), and a growing emphasis on energy efficiency and sustainability. There is a trend toward using reclaimed refrigerants.
Positioning
Hudson Technologies is positioned as a leading refrigerant reclaimer and a solutions provider for transitioning to next-generation refrigerants. Its competitive advantage lies in its reclamation technology, expertise in refrigerant management, and regulatory compliance capabilities.
Total Addressable Market (TAM)
TAM includes the entire market for refrigerants, refrigerant reclamation, and related services. It's estimated in the billions of dollars annually. Hudson Technologies is well-positioned to capture a larger share as regulations tighten and demand for reclaimed refrigerants increases.

Summary
Hudson Technologies is a key player in refrigerant reclamation, benefiting from environmental regulations. Its RAAS program provides growth opportunities, but fluctuating refrigerant prices and regulatory changes pose risks. Their success depends on staying innovative and expanding its service offerings while adapting to changing environmental laws. Despite these challenges, Hudson remains a strong performer in a niche industry.
