Towards the Next
Generation of Fuel Cells
what we do
Providing technical solutions
We create novel products & services with unique technical and economical benefits as market enabler for clean and sustainable energy conversion & storage.
With strong focus on the market needs, we develop and produce smart functionalized materials for PEM fuel cell & electrolyzer components and provide efficient production processes thereof.
Our vision is a mature fuel cell technology linked to an ecologically worthwhile hydrogen production & infrastructure as inevitable part of tomorrow’s energy economy.

What makes us unique
The bipolar plate (as repeating unit) is a key component for high technical efficiency, longevity and cost effectiveness of fuel cell stacks. An automotive fuel cell system of 120 kW contains around 350 bipolar plate assemblies with a total surface area of 50 m2.
Surface area is the key – bulk is ballast!
Therefore, ultra-thin materials in combination with innovative manufacturing processes reveal a smart solution for the volume production of fuel cells.
We provide materials and coatings for thin and lightweight metal bipolar plates in order to ensure high power density as well as longterm stability of fuel cells.
