Hydrogen & Fuel Cell
Vacuum Coating Equipment & Technologies

Hydrogen is considered one of the energy sources of the future.  It is the first element in the periodic table of elements. And so-called green hydrogen will play a central role. This term refers to hydrogen produced from water by electrolysis. If the required electrical energy is generated by renewables, green hydrogen is carbon-neutral in production. thus, it is a sustainable energy source with a wide range of potential applications, for example in fuel cells.

As the markets for electrolyzers and fuel cells are still at the beginning of an industrialization phase, equipment manufacturers with expertise in scaling and industrialization are in demand - like VON ARDENNE.

With our know-how, our PVD processes and coating systems, we offer manufacturers of electrolyzers and fuel cells optimal solutions for cost-effective and highly productive production.

In our in-house Technical Application Center, we can test coating concepts and carry out sampling with them.
