Hudson Technologies Re-Awarded $210M Defense Contract

Ken Gaglione, Hudson's president and chief executive, said the re-award validates the competitive process. He pointed to the company's ten years of support for the DLA. "We look forward to continuing to demonstrate our unique ability to service the contract," Gaglione said in a statement.

Hudson is one of the largest refrigerant reclaimers in the United States. It sells refrigerant and industrial gases, reclaims used refrigerants to industry standards, and provides on-site services such as system decontamination. The company also offers real-time monitoring and diagnostic services through its SmartEnergy OPS and Chiller Chemistry platforms.

The contract award had been a known risk factor. Hudson disclosed the protest in its annual report, noting that a loss of the DLA business could hurt revenue. The re-award removes that uncertainty, though the company still faces competition and regulatory shifts in the refrigerant market. The DLA option could extend the deal for another five years, giving Hudson a stable revenue stream through the mid-2030s.
