Direct from the Brand Owner — Why This Matters for Nigerian Buyers
When a Nigerian HVAC contractor, spare parts dealer, cold chain operator, or automotive workshop buys Westron® or Maxron® refrigerant from Al Faisal in Dubai, they are not buying from a reseller, a distributor, or a middleman. They are buying directly from the brand owner — the company that owns and controls these refrigerant brands, manufactures or commissions their production, and is responsible for their quality, certification, and supply. There is no shorter or more direct route to genuine Westron® or Maxron® refrigerant than Al Faisal.
This distinction is critical in the Nigerian refrigerant market, which is heavily infiltrated by substandard, mislabelled, and diluted refrigerant cylinders sold under familiar brand names by traders who have no relationship with the actual brand owner. When you import Westron® or Maxron® from Al Faisal, the product you receive is what the label says it is — correctly filled, correctly labelled, correctly certified, and traceable directly to our Dubai operations. We guarantee this because we own these brands.
Our Refrigerant Brands — Westron® & Maxron®
Westron®
UAE Origin · Al Faisal Brand · Professional Grade
Westron® is Al Faisal’s flagship refrigerant brand — manufactured to professional grade standards under UAE origin certification. Westron® refrigerants are Non-Ozone-depleting, energy efficient, Non-Toxic, and produced to the highest purity standards for AC, refrigeration, and automotive applications. Available across the full refrigerant range: R22, R32, R134a, R290, R404a, R407c, R410a, R417a, R507, and R600.
Westron® cylinders carry certified brand labelling, batch numbers, and chemical property specifications — everything a Nigerian importer needs to verify authenticity and satisfy their customers and clearing agents. When Nigerian dealers sell Westron®, they sell a brand that is backed by the brand owner — not a grey-market label with no accountability behind it.
Available Pack Sizes — Westron®
Cans — 320g / 340g / 500g / 1,000g
Disposable Cylinders — 3.4kg / 6.8kg / 13.6kg (7.5lb / 15lb / 30lb)
Refillable Cylinders — 6.5kg / 12kg / 60kg
Torpedo / Ton Tanks — 500kg / 950kg
ISO Tankers — 20,000kg
Maxron®
Made in Korea · Al Faisal Brand · Multi-Application
Maxron® is Al Faisal’s Korean-manufactured refrigerant brand — produced in Korea to international HVAC and refrigeration quality standards. Maxron® refrigerants are Non-Ozone-depleting, Zero ODP (Ozone Depleting Potential), energy efficient, and available across the full application range: automotive AC, residential and commercial split AC, commercial refrigeration, cold storage, transport refrigeration, and industrial applications.
Maxron® is particularly strong in the automotive refrigerant category — R134a in Maxron® is widely trusted by Nigerian automotive workshops and fleet operators who need a consistently labelled, certified cylinder that they can confidently resell to their customers. Maxron® also extends to copper coils (Made in Korea) giving Nigerian importers a single brand they recognise across both refrigerants and copper pipe.

The Complete Refrigerant Range — Available for Nigeria Export
Al Faisal stocks and exports the full range of refrigerant gases required by Nigerian HVAC contractors, refrigeration engineers, automotive workshops, cold chain operators, and refrigerant dealers. Every type listed below is available in Westron® and Maxron® brand — and in selected types under additional brands we stock — across all cylinder sizes from small cans to ISO tankers:
R22 — HCFC Refrigerant
Nigeria’s Largest Volume Refrigerant
Still the most widely used refrigerant across Nigeria’s enormous legacy installed base — millions of residential split ACs, window ACs, commercial systems, and older chillers. Nigeria’s AC fleet was predominantly installed on R22 systems through the 2000s and 2010s, and these systems require ongoing R22 recharging for years to come. R22 demand from Nigeria remains consistently high and is expected to stay elevated for at least a decade as the legacy installed base is gradually retired or converted.
Applications: Residential split AC, window AC, commercial packaged units, chillers, commercial refrigeration
Purity: ≥99.8% — Westron® and Maxron® certified
Oil compatibility: Mineral oil or Alkylbenzene oil
R410a — HFC Refrigerant
Standard for All Modern Split AC — Nigeria’s Growth Refrigerant
R410a is the standard refrigerant for every modern split AC installed in Nigeria from approximately 2010 onwards — LG, Samsung, Daikin, Carrier, Panasonic, Midea, Gree, Hisense, Haier, and virtually every other brand. As Nigeria’s new AC installation rate accelerates and older R22 systems are replaced, R410a demand grows in parallel. Nigerian AC workshops and dealers consume large volumes of R410a cylinders every month.
Applications: All modern residential and commercial split AC systems
Cylinder colour: Pink / Rose — Westron® and Maxron® standard
Oil compatibility: POE oil only
R32 — HFC Refrigerant
Growing Fast — New Inverter Systems Nigeria
R32 is the refrigerant of choice for the latest generation of inverter split AC systems — Daikin, Panasonic, Mitsubishi, and selected LG models. As Nigeria’s premium residential and commercial market adopts newer inverter AC systems, R32 demand is growing rapidly. Nigerian dealers who establish R32 supply from Al Faisal now are positioning ahead of the curve as the installed R32 base expands.
Applications: New inverter split AC systems — Daikin, Panasonic, Mitsubishi, LG
GWP: Significantly lower than R410a — environmentally preferred
Oil compatibility: POE oil only — must not use mineral oil
R134a — HFC Refrigerant
Nigeria’s Dominant Automotive Refrigerant
R134a is the standard refrigerant for virtually every vehicle on Nigerian roads — from private cars to commercial vehicles, buses, trucks, and fleet operations. Nigeria’s enormous vehicle population, combined with tropical heat that puts constant strain on automotive AC systems, creates massive R134a demand from automotive workshops, fleet operators, and refrigerant distributors across Lagos, Abuja, Kano, Port Harcourt, and every major Nigerian city. Maxron® R134a is particularly strong in this segment.
Applications: Automotive AC systems, light commercial refrigeration, heat pumps
Packaging: Small cans to ISO tankers — ideal for workshop retail and bulk wholesale
Oil compatibility: POE oil or PAG oil — NOT mineral oil
R404a — HFC Refrigerant Blend
Commercial Refrigeration & Cold Chain Nigeria
R404a is the refrigerant of choice for commercial cold storage across Nigeria — supermarket display cases, walk-in cold rooms, blast freezers, pharmaceutical cold stores, blood banks, and food processing cold chain. Nigeria’s expanding supermarket sector, growing pharmaceutical distribution network, and increasing food export capacity all drive consistent R404a demand from Nigerian cold chain operators and refrigeration contractors.
Applications: Commercial refrigeration, cold storage, transport refrigeration, blast freezing
Oil compatibility: POE oil
Alongside: Often ordered with Danfoss and Tecumseh compressors
R407c — HFC Refrigerant Blend
Commercial HVAC Chillers & Large Systems
R407c is widely used in Carrier, York, Trane, and Daikin commercial chiller systems installed across Nigerian hotels, hospitals, banks, government buildings, and large commercial real estate. Nigerian facilities management companies and commercial HVAC contractors regularly order R407c from Al Faisal for servicing these large building installations.
Applications: Commercial chillers, large split systems, VRF systems
Used in: Carrier, York, Trane, Daikin commercial installations
Oil compatibility: POE oil
R290 — Hydrocarbon Refrigerant
Natural Refrigerant · Low GWP
R290 (propane) is a natural refrigerant with very low GWP and zero ODP — increasingly specified in new AC systems for markets with environmental regulations and in commercial refrigeration. Maxron® R290 is a high-concentration product that delivers strong cooling performance. Growing Nigerian adoption of eco-friendly systems is expanding R290 demand.
Applications: New eco-specification AC systems, light commercial refrigeration
Note: Flammable — classified A3, requires correct handling procedures
R417a — Drop-in R22 Replacement
R22 Retrofit — Legacy System Upgrade
R417a is an HFC blend designed as a near-drop-in replacement for R22 in existing legacy AC systems — allowing Nigerian technicians to retrofit older R22 systems to a more environmentally friendly refrigerant without full compressor replacement. Increasingly relevant as global R22 phase-out pressure reaches the Nigerian market.
Applications: R22 retrofit in existing residential and commercial AC
Advantage: Compatible with existing mineral oil — no full system flush required
R507 — HFC Azeotropic Blend
Low Temperature Commercial Refrigeration
R507 is used in low-temperature commercial refrigeration applications — blast freezers, ice cream freezers, and deep cold storage below -20°C. Nigerian food processing plants, pharmaceutical cold stores, and industrial cold chain operators who operate at low temperatures specify R507 for their systems.
Applications: Low-temperature commercial freezers, transport refrigeration
Alongside: Often ordered with Danfoss and Tecumseh low-temperature compressors
R600 — Isobutane Refrigerant
Household Refrigerators & Freezers
R600 (isobutane) is the refrigerant used in modern household refrigerators and freezers. As Nigeria’s household appliance repair sector grows alongside rising refrigerator ownership, R600 is an increasingly important refrigerant type for Nigerian appliance technicians and spare parts dealers who service domestic refrigerators across the country.
Applications: Household refrigerators, domestic freezers
Note: Flammable — A3 classification, small charge quantities in domestic appliances
Available Pack Sizes — From Workshop Cans to ISO Tankers
Al Faisal supplies Westron® and Maxron® refrigerants across the complete size range — from small cans for workshop retail all the way to ISO tankers for large-scale refrigerant importers and distributors in Nigeria. This makes Al Faisal a suitable refrigerant partner for any Nigerian business at any scale:
Small Cans — Retail Workshop Size
320g / 340g / 500g / 1,000g cans — the retail workshop format for automotive AC top-ups and small residential AC recharges. Nigerian automotive workshops and small AC service businesses use cans for quick top-up jobs. High-margin retail item for Nigerian spare parts dealers. Easy to import in carton quantities in any consolidated shipment.
Best for: Automotive workshops · Small AC service businesses · Retail spare parts dealers
Disposable Cylinders — Workshop Standard
3.4kg / 6.8kg / 13.6kg (7.5lb / 15lb / 30lb) — the standard workshop cylinder format used by Nigerian HVAC contractors and AC workshops for residential and commercial system recharging. The 13.6kg cylinder is the most commonly ordered size by Nigerian wholesale importers. Priced per cylinder — significant bulk discount on case and pallet quantities.
Best for: HVAC contractors · AC workshops · Wholesale dealers · Sea freight import
Refillable Cylinders — Repeat Users
6.5kg / 12kg / 60kg refillable cylinders — for Nigerian businesses that want to manage their own cylinder inventory and refill from bulk stock.

When you buy our own brand from us, you are buying the product with the shortest and most accountable supply chain available to the Nigerian market.
Why Genuine Certified Refrigerant Matters in Nigeria
Nigeria’s refrigerant market has a serious substandard product problem. Unlabelled, mislabelled, diluted, and cross-contaminated refrigerant cylinders are widely sold across Nigerian markets — from street traders to spare parts shops — at prices that appear attractive but mask enormous hidden costs.
Diluted Refrigerant Destroys Compressors
Substandard refrigerant that is diluted, contaminated with moisture, or incorrectly blended degrades compressor lubrication and increases discharge temperature — damaging compressor windings and bearing surfaces over time. The compressor then fails, the customer blames the technician, and the actual cause — substandard refrigerant — is never identified. A genuine Westron® or Maxron® cylinder of certified purity protects every compressor it charges.
Mislabelled Refrigerant Causes Dangerous Mixing
Cylinders labelled as R410a that actually contain R22, or cylinders labelled as R32 with incorrect blends, cause catastrophic system damage when introduced into systems designed for a different refrigerant type. Mixing refrigerant types in a sealed system destroys the compressor, clogs the expansion valve, and voids any warranty. Westron® and Maxron® cylinders contain exactly what the label states — verified at source by the brand owner.
Certified Refrigerant Protects Your Business Reputation
Nigerian HVAC contractors and dealers who use Westron® or Maxron® cylinders from Al Faisal can tell their customers exactly what refrigerant brand they are using, where it comes from, and who stands behind it. This transparency builds customer trust, justifies premium service pricing, and creates the kind of professional reputation that generates referrals and repeat business. Contractors who use unbranded cylinders cannot make any of these assurances.
Long-Term Partnership with Nigerian Refrigerant Buyers
Al Faisal’s relationship with Nigeria is not transactional — it is a long-term business partnership built over two decades. Nigerian customers who import Westron® and Maxron® refrigerant from Al Faisal are not just buying product. They are accessing a reliable, consistent supply of their own brand owner’s product, with predictable pricing, consistent quality, and a Dubai partner who understands their market and serves their needs with genuine commitment.
We welcome Nigerian refrigerant buyers at every scale — from the Alaba International Market spare parts dealer ordering cartons of R22 and R134a cans for retail, to the commercial refrigerant distributor importing torpedo tanks of R404a for the Nigerian cold chain sector, to the large-scale operator importing ISO tankers. Whatever your volume and whatever your product mix, Al Faisal is ready to serve you with the same quality, the same genuine branded product, and the same professional service.

Frequently Asked Questions — Refrigerants for Nigeria
Can I import refrigerant cylinders from Dubai to Nigeria by sea freight?
Yes — refrigerant cylinders are classified as hazardous goods under IMDG (International Maritime Dangerous Goods) regulations and can be shipped by sea freight with correct packaging and documentation. Al Faisal handles all IMDG-compliant packaging and provides the required Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) and hazardous goods declarations with every shipment. We have been exporting refrigerant cylinders to Nigeria by sea freight since 2005.
What is the difference between Westron® and Maxron® refrigerant?
Both are Al Faisal’s own brands — the primary difference is origin and production base. Westron® is UAE-origin, manufactured under Al Faisal’s direct oversight in the UAE. Maxron® is Made in Korea to international HVAC quality standards. Both brands cover the same refrigerant types, the same cylinder sizes, and both carry certified labelling. For most Nigerian applications, either brand is equally suitable — Maxron® has particular strength in the automotive R134a segment due to its Korean manufacturing heritage.
What is the minimum order for refrigerant export to Nigeria?
There is no fixed minimum order — we supply from single cylinders by air freight for urgent requirements to full ISO tanker loads for large-scale importers. For sea freight, a practical minimum is typically a mixed pallet of cylinders that justifies the LCL freight cost. Contact Al Faisal with your specific refrigerant type, quantity, and cylinder size requirements and we will advise on the most cost-effective import approach.
Do I need special import permits for refrigerant in Nigeria?
Standard HFC refrigerants (R410a, R32, R134a, R404a, R407c) do not require special import permits beyond standard customs clearance in Nigeria. R22 (HCFC) is subject to quota controls under the Montreal Protocol — your clearing agent will advise on current R22 import status. Al Faisal provides all required export documentation including MSDS sheets and hazardous goods declarations to support your Nigerian customs clearance.
Can Al Faisal supply refrigerant for a Nigerian wholesale distributor who resells to other dealers?
Yes — this is exactly the type of long-term business relationship we actively seek with Nigerian partners. A Nigerian refrigerant distributor who buys Westron® and Maxron® from Al Faisal and resells to HVAC contractors and spare parts dealers across their region is a valued partner. We can discuss dedicated wholesale pricing, regular order cycles, and the supply structure that works best for your distribution model. Contact us to begin this conversation.
