Already renowned for its deep expertise and trusted partnerships with prominent Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) in the automotive world, Arteco is now leveraging its decades-long experience to cater to a growing market with fast evolving needs. The new solution arrives at a critical moment, as the escalating computational demands of today’s powerful technologies - like Generative AI and Large Language Models - produce unprecedented heat loads which are threatening system performance, energy efficiency, and hardware reliability in case no improved thermal management solutions are implemented.

ZITREC® EC - a versatile portfolio of Mono Propylene Glycol (MPG)-based, water-based and Mono Ethylene Glycol (MEG)-based formulations with OAT (Organic Additive Technology) - is specifically designed to help tackle these challenges. This advanced range of direct-to-chip coolants is engineered to deliver exceptional thermal performance and energy efficiency, allowing components to operate at higher calculating power without the risk of overheating. Its advanced features provide long-lasting corrosion protection which allows to extend equipment lifespan and provide a safeguard against downtime. ZITREC® EC therefore simplifies hardware maintenance and significantly lowers the total cost and complexity of thermal management systems.

“In this incredibly exciting era of AI and other technological advancements, we recognized a clear opportunity to combine our decades of cooling expertise with our relentless pursuit of innovation and sustainability, thereby empowering the digital infrastructure of tomorrow,” says Serge Lievens, Technology Manager at Arteco. “Our biggest strength in this new ZITREC® EC chapter is the same unwavering commitment to product excellence and deep customer intimacy that established us as a trusted leader in the automotive world. In the data center space too, we will continue to proactively co-create with our customers, delivering tailored cooling solutions that meet—and exceed—their most demanding requirements. This is how we want to set new standards in thermal management in the data center and electronics market.”, adds Alexandre Moireau, General Manager of Arteco.

As part of its broader sustainability strategy, Arteco is also announcing the upcoming launch of a new bio-based MPG addition to its new ZITREC® EC line. This new product complements the existing recycled MPG variant, underscores Arteco’s commitment to environmentally responsible innovation and offers the same product performance and quality as the other products in the ZITREC® EC range.
