Extreme Performance

Alfa Laval Packinox

Exceptional heat recovery for the most demanding refinery and petrochemical duties. The ultimate solution for high flow, high temperature, and high pressure applications.

Industrial Heat Recovery

Packinox is a compact heat exchanger layout engineered for large scale industrial heating and cooling tasks. By combining thermal efficiency with low pressure drop characteristics, it supports plant energy recovery and reduces process operating costs.

Recognised in catalytic reforming and hydroprocessing applications, Packinox units replace multiple shell and tube heat exchangers in a single vessel layout.
