Hydrogen Gas
Hydrogen GasAmong industrial gases, hydrogen is a rare combination: the lightest element in the periodic table and at the same time one of the most reactive. We supply this gas in industrial to laboratory grades, with on-time delivery and transparent pricing, to factories, petrochemical plants, laboratories and gas-mixing centers.
Grades and choosing the right purity
The more sensitive the process is to impurities, the higher the grade required. For most production lines and welding, grade 2.5 or industrial grade is enough and more cost-effective.

Supply and refilling
There are two ways to get hydrogen: delivery of a full, ready-to-use cylinder, or refilling a cylinder you already have. For continuous use, the second option is usually more economical. Details of cylinder volumes and technical specifications are on the hydrogen cylinder page.

Supply and delivery method
Hydrogen can be supplied ready to use or by refilling tanks, depending on the customer’s needs and consumption. The supply method is usually chosen based on consumption, production schedule and the operating conditions of each organization. For regular users, refilling tanks is an economical and cost-effective solution. For new projects or urgent orders, direct product supply is also available. Choosing the right delivery method can minimize supply costs and downtime in industrial processes.
Laboratory hydrogen has much higher purity and suits precise scientific applications, while the industrial type is used for production processes and welding.
Because of the small size of its molecule and its low ignition energy. This makes ventilation and keeping away from ignition sources even more vital for this gas.
Because in this application it makes no difference to the result and only adds cost. High grades should be kept for where they really affect the outcome, such as chromatography.
Yes, hydrogen is highly flammable and explosive. For this reason, cylinders must be used with standard safety equipment and by trained personnel.
