About TYFO ROP Chemie
TYFO ROP Chemie GmbH is a Hamburg-based manufacturer of chemical-technical products with over 60 years of experience in Europe. The company develops and produces coolants, heat and cold carrier media and corrosion inhibitors under the brands TYFO COR, TYFO XIT, ANTICORA, REINHARTIN and SOLARCLIN. The products are used in cooling and heating systems, heat pumps, solar systems, refrigeration and ice rink systems as well as food cooling. At its Hamburg site, TYFO has its own research and development centre with a laboratory in which corrosion protection, temperature stability, foam and low-temperature behaviour as well as physical and chemical parameters are tested. Reference projects include the Hamburg Elbphilharmonie, the Volksparkstadion and projects of the German Aerospace Center (DLR). Through country representatives, TYFO supplies among others France, Switzerland, the Baltic states, Scandinavia as well as the USA and Canada.
