makers of gas storage tanks

Advanced hydrogen storage containers designed for fuel cell vehicles. Type V vessels typically feature a composite construction with integrated mounting systems to reduce weight and cost compared to traditional external attachment designs.

Advanced composite material developed by Haydale that combines graphene with carbon fiber to create stronger, lighter materials for pressure vessel construction. The material enables construction of impermeable pressure vessels.

Viritech's proprietary system for mounting hydrogen pressure vessels that integrates mounting points into the vessel structure itself. This design reduces weight and cost compared to external attachment systems.

Ford Motor Company's three-year hydrogen fuel cell E-Transit trial testing hydrogen fuel cell technology on commercial vehicles in a small UK-based prototype fleet. The project aims to establish whether hydrogen fuel cell technology can deliver improved zero-emission driving range for E-Transit customers with energy-intensive use cases.
