The rise of computing power
In an era of rapid advancements in AI, ML and high-performance computing, the challenges computing systems and electronic applications are facing are greater than ever. Increased power output leads to higher heat generation, risking diminished performance and potential hardware malfunctions.
Traditional air-cooling methods can no longer keep up with the demands of cutting-edge technologies. Water-based, direct-to-chip liquid cooling is the go-to solution for high-performance computing, AI servers and other applications.
Advanced cooling with ZITREC® EC
Arteco's ZITREC® EC product range brings performant solutions for datacenter server manufacturers and operators, chip designers and technical cooling system providers.
- Engineered for Direct-To-Chip solutions
Making use of a coldplate, our Zitrec® EC fluids outperform traditional air cooling methods. - Patented Organic Additive Technology (OAT) package
Our ZITREC® EC fluids provide long-lasting cooling performance and ensure compatibility with most common metals and elastomers in datacenter cooling systems. - Optimal thermal performance
Multiple base fluid options with advanced formulations specifically designed to withstand elevated temperatures. These high-performance solutions are engineered to deliver superior durability, ensuring a longer lifespan compared to traditional technologies. - Advanced corrosion protection
Patented organic additive technology (OAT) and selected additives result in long-lasting corrosion resistance and protects critical system components even at elevated temperatures. - Material Compatibility
High temperature corrosion protection for metals such as copper, (stainless) steel, aluminium, brass, etc. Compatible with most common elastomers and thermoplastics. - No biofouling
All formulations are proven to be biostatic preventing the formation of biofilms. - Leakages
By incorporating a stable leak detection package, leak locations can be quickly and easily identified. Additionally, a reduced electrically conductive product is available minimizing the risk of short circuits, enhancing overall safety and reliability. - Environmental responsibility
No environmental concerns. The propylene glycol is derived from the recycling and purification of de-icing fluid. All formulations are readily biodegradable. Option for Bio-EG and Bio-PG. - Safety
Continuous monitoring of global chemical regulations ensures low toxicity products, resulting in safe handling and operation. All formulations are free from nitrites, borates and 2-EHA. - Global availability
A global network with offices and plants at strategic locations ensures an efficient supply chain. Our product stewardship team is continuously monitoring the global chemical regulations.
ZITREC® EC - more than PG25
Our ZITREC® EC 20 product fits the standard for PG25 reference for direct-to-chip liquid cooling as defined by the industry standard. More than PG25 embodies multiple facets that highlight the diverse strengths and values of our product range and services for data centers.
More than PG25 isn’t just a tagline. It reflects how we support engineers, system architects, and thermal designers with deeper thinking, broader solutions, and long-term commitment focussing on better sustainable solutions for the future.
1. More Than One Product
While PG25 (ZITREC® EC 20) is the widely used standard, it isn’t the only option.
ZITREC® EC is part of a full portfolio of engineered coolants, tailored to a range of thermal and environmental demands. In addition to PG-based fluids, we offer EG-based and water-based solutions, each formulated with the right balance between heat transfer efficiency, stability, and material compatibility.
Choosing the right fluid isn’t just about concentration. It’s about your system’s materials, target performance, power density, risk tolerance, maintenance cycles, and long-term goals.
We help you navigate that complexity with clarity.
2. More Than a Coolant
ZITREC® EC is a product, yes—but it’s also a process. We support you throughout the life cycle of your liquid cooling system, not just at the point of delivery. That includes startup assistance, in-line fluid validation, and custom services such as periodic sampling and UV agent integration for fast leak detection.
Your fluid choice has long-term implications. That’s why we offer embedded services that reduce downtime risk, enhance monitoring, and support predictive maintenance strategies.
From first fill to five-year reviews—we’re with you.
3. More Than a Supplier
We don’t push product. We build partnerships. Arteco works side-by-side with some of the world’s leading companies to develop new cooling solutions that meet evolving requirements. This includes collaboration at the design stage, testing under real-world conditions, and tailoring fluids to specific systems, locations, or usage profiles.
Our technical and commercial teams are agile, accessible, and engineer focused. While the industry giants may offer catalogue solutions, we offer conversation, iteration, and precision. You can speak directly with our R&D teams. You can challenge us. And we’ll show up with ideas—not just PDF's.
4. More than Sustainable
Sustainability isn’t a feature—it’s a foundation. From recycled base fluids to low-impact packaging and circularity programs, our commitment is embedded into the way we operate. ZITREC® EC 20 is based on recycled MPG, but that’s just the beginning. We’re developing bio-based alternatives, evaluating non-fossil feedstocks, and engaging with partners to reduce emissions in real terms.
Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond our walls. We aim to collaborate closely with our partners. With you. Whether you're aiming for internal goals, customer transparency, or regulatory compliance, we support you with honest data, continuous improvement, and a portfolio that moves beyond intent to implementation.
5. More Than Today
Thermal demands are rising. Hardware is changing. And regulatory frameworks are shifting.
The systems you build today need to be ready for tomorrow’s power densities, materials, and constraints.
That’s why our innovation pipeline is built around flexibility. We’re testing fluids that can exceed the cooling requirements of todays chips. We’re working on options with lower global warming potential. We’re exploring formulas that reduce supply chain exposure or fit new regulations.
ZITREC® EC gives you stability today and our ecosystem is engineered to evolve alongside your technology roadmaps.
Let’s Build What’s Next – Together
ZITREC® EC is more than PG25. It’s a starting point for data centers that want confidence today and capability tomorrow.
Let’s explore what your system really needs—and select the fluid and services that fit.
