Under the dual challenges of global warming and the energy crisis, the high energy consumption problem of traditional air - conditioning refrigeration technology has become increasingly prominent. Such systems not only consume a large amount of electricity, but the refrigerants such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) they use can also exacerbate ozone layer depletion and the greenhouse effect. Meanwhile, the emissions from dense air - conditioning outdoor units in cities are causing the urban heat island effect to worsen further.

According to data from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and others, the power consumption of global refrigeration systems already accounts for 20% of the world's total electricity consumption. By 2050, the global refrigeration demand will triple, and the related emissions may reach 44 - 61 billion tons of carbon dioxide equivalent, accounting for more than 10% of the world's total emissions. Against this background, the development of new refrigeration technologies is crucial for energy conservation and promoting the process of carbon neutrality.

Recently, the third - anniversary press conference of Chuangleng Technology and the Green Future City Forum were held at the Shenzhen Qianhai International Conference Center. At the event site, Chuangleng Technology officially launched the industry's first powder coating product, i2POWDER, developed based on the principle of radiative cooling. This powder coating can be directly adapted to the powder coating process at the building materials factory end, achieving pre - integration in the production process.

As a green and environmentally friendly material, powder coating has significant advantages such as zero VOC (volatile organic compounds) emissions and strong stability. In recent years, its application in the fields of building and industrial coating has been continuously increasing.

Compared with traditional liquid coatings, i2POWDER can be directly applied to the powder spraying production line of building materials factories. On the one hand, it effectively improves the construction efficiency, reduces the drying time and processes of traditional liquid coatings. At the same time, it also enhances the weather resistance of the coating, better coping with the erosion of complex outdoor environments.

As one of the key products of Chuangleng Technology, its powder coating already has the ability of independent production. In the future, it will rely on the company's self - built factory for large - scale manufacturing. Chuangleng Technology has also launched upgraded coatings, window films and coil products to build a more complete green cooling solution system.

In addition, based on the core technology of non - electric refrigeration, Chuangleng Technology officially launched the sub - brand Infinity Kelvin clothing series. This series weaves micro - nano structured materials into fibers to achieve efficient reflection of sunlight and rapid heat release, resulting in a significant cooling effect on the human body. The products cover sun - protective clothing, polo shirts, cycling arm sleeves, outdoor umbrellas, etc. From building and industrial applications to daily wear, it aims to promote non - electric refrigeration technology to truly enter people's lives.

Since its establishment, Chuangleng Technology has been focusing on the exploration and research of non - electric refrigeration technology, with the goal of reducing indoor temperature without the need for additional energy and refrigerants.

Through the model of "R & D in Hong Kong + transformation in Shenzhen", the company has initially formed a multi - product - line layout and the basis for cross - field cooperation. It has applied non - electric refrigeration technology to various products such as coatings, window films, coils, and textiles, including the non - electric refrigeration coating iPaint and the non - electric refrigeration film iFilm. These products can be used in fields such as construction, chemical industry, power communication, new energy, logistics, grain storage, and photovoltaics. More than a hundred innovative projects have been implemented, and the business covers more than 20 countries and regions, with a cumulative application area of over 400,000 square meters.

As of October 2024, Chuangleng Technology has cumulatively achieved the environmental protection goal of reducing carbon emissions by more than 3 million kilograms, which is equivalent to planting more than 200,000 trees on the earth.
