Reshaping the future of Flow Solutions at AHR 2026

As GF continues its transformation into the global leader in Flow Solutions, both company divisions – GF Building Flow Solutions (formerly Uponor) and GF Industry and Infrastructure Flow Solutions (formerly GF Piping Systems) – will unite as "One GF". GF Industry and Infrastructure will highlight its design and prefabricated solutions, as well as advanced cooling solutions for Data Centers with a strong focus on sustainable technologies, especially in support of rapid growth markets.

Data Centers continue to serve as the backbone of the digital economy, and the global expansion of artificial intelligence is driving unprecedented demand for high-performance, energy-efficient infrastructure. As this growth accelerates, the need for sustainable and reliable cooling technologies has never been more critical. Cooling systems represent as much as 40% of total energy consumption in today’s modern hyperscale data centers. In response, GF is committed to supporting the industry with innovative Liquid Cooling solutions engineered to enhance both efficiency and sustainability across mission-critical environments.

As industrial projects grow in scale and complexity, GF delivers reliable, high-quality pre-fabricated solutions designed to help our customers reduce costs and accelerate project completion. From the early steps of design to the assembly, GF engineering and prefabrication capabilities offer ready-to-install solutions that minimize on-site work and accelerate project execution. From pipe racks and modules to skid building, special fittings, pipe spools and assemblies, GF delivers reliable, high-quality pre-fabricated solutions ideal for large-scale industrial facilities including data centers, microelectronics, and chilled water-cooling systems.

Pre-insulated piping systems are emerging as another critical technology in cooling infrastructures across industrial and commercial environments. Engineered to minimize energy loss and enhance long-term performance, GF pre-insulated portfolio includes COOL-FIT^® PE Plus pre-insulated plastic piping systems, as well as comprehensive factory insulation solutions from the GF Urecon brand. Ideal for use in refrigeration installations COOL-FIT^® PE Plus pairs corrosion and maintenance-free plastic components with ex works pre-insulation in a system that is reliable, efficient, safe, lightweight and quick to install. The GF Urecon brand specializes in custom pre-insulated solutions for virtually any type and size of pipe, or applications including hot water and chilled water distribution in the district energy industry, and electric heat tracing to compensate for heat losses.

GF continues to drive innovation in residential and commercial gas and water utilities, delivering sustainable solutions that extend the lifespan of vital infrastructure while minimizing disruptive repairs. From the source to the grid and all the way to the end user, GF Industry and Infrastructure Flow Solutions partners with utilities to protect and preserve these essential resources. Our comprehensive portfolio enables efficient repair, maintenance, and rehabilitation of all types of piping systems. With proven technologies that address bursts and leaks across common pipe materials, GF helps utilities achieve greater cost efficiency, reliability, and sustainable water management.
