THERMAL
SOLUTIONS
ECOtherm PCM™ is an energy solutions-based company headquartered in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We are committed to the development and use of energy-saving Phase Change Materials (PCM) for the commercial, governmental and residential building sectors and real estate MUSH markets.
Our cutting-edge proprietary PCM technology transforms the return air space in buildings into a “thermal mass,” capable of storing the heat generated by its occupants, equipment and external thermal loads then releasing it at optimal times, thereby maintaining temperature stability at a fraction of the cost of currently available energy technologies.
ECOtherm PCM™ is an energy industry leader in phase change materials and thermal energy systems.
We provide developers, building owners, asset managers, REIT and companies with exceptional energy cost savings installing our thermal storage products in buildings.
