Hexagon Purus opens hydrogen infrastructure and systems manufacturing hub in Weeze, Germany

OSLO, NORWAY: Hexagon Purus, a world leading manufacturer of zero-emission mobility and hydrogen infrastructure solutions, has expanded its primary manufacturing facility in Weeze, Germany for engineering and production of hydrogen infrastructure products including systems for distribution, refueling and stationary storage.

Hexagon Purus is ramping up its capacity to meet growing customer demand for hydrogen infrastructure solutions as the world transitions to clean energy sources. The existing 11,000m(2) state of the art facility in Weeze is now expanded to 16,000m(2). The capacity expansion approximately doubles Hexagon Purus’ annual production capacity of type 4 high-pressure hydrogen infrastructure solutions.

“We are proud to open our expanded manufacturing site in Weeze, our fourth to open in the last 12 months,” says Michael Kleschinski, EVP Mobility & Infrastructure.

“Hydrogen storage and distribution is a vital part of the hydrogen ecosystem and has been a major growth driver for Hexagon Purus. We continue to take market share for storage and transport of hydrogen of all colors from incumbent solutions due to the competitive total cost of ownership of our Type 4 transport and storage solutions.  We expect this trend to continue as green hydrogen gradually replaces grey and higher capacity improves our ability to meet growing demand.”

The opening at Weeze follows openings of new manufacturing sites for hydrogen cylinder production in Kassel (Germany) in September 2023, battery systems in Kelowna (Canada) in April 2023 and hydrogen cylinders in Westminster (Maryland, US) in January last year.
