Amazon has signed a multi-year commercial agreement with Transaera to deploy desiccant-based cooling and dehumidification across its global logistics estate. Transaera's dedicated outdoor air system (DOAS) uses metal organic framework (MOF) materials to remove moisture before cooling — claimed energy savings of up to 40% vs conventional rooftop direct-expansion systems. The deal follows a six-month field trial at an Amazon logistics facility in Houston, with results validated by third-party analysis. Transaera will dedicate part of its US manufacturing output to Amazon's HVAC deployment.
