The Need
United Technologies had to name their new environmentally sound Freon® replacement. Freon was being eliminated from air conditioners because of environmental worries such as global warming. This project presented some challenges. The new name needed to:
-
Sound similar to Freon to simplify adoption
-
Be easy for dealers to explain to their customers
-
Be short to provide a “billboard effect” on trucks
-
Sound greener than the Freon name
