Solutions for Sustainable Energy

We provide reinforcement fabrics for ion exchange membranes in AEC, PEM, and AEM for an efficient and sustainable hydrogen production.

Maximized Performance and High Uptime

Used in alkaline electrolysis cells (AEC), proton exchange membranes (PEM), and anion exchange membranes (AEM), our reinforcement fabrics help maximize performance, simplify production, and extend uptime. 

  • Maximize Membrane Performance
    Ultra-thin fabrics with high open area enable thinner membranes while increasing their performance.
  • Extend Uptime
    Exceptional mechanical and chemical resistance extends membrane life and boosts operational stability.
  • Ensure Quality
    Full control from yarn to fabric ensures low contamination, tight tolerances, and repeatable quality.
  • Streamline Production
    High planarity and cleanliness simplify membrane processing. Custom roll formats cut waste and setup time.

Electrolyzers need highly efficient and durable membranes for reliable electrolysis over a long product lifetime.

Improving Hydrogen Production

Our ultra-thin, high-open-area fabrics enable thinner membranes that support faster ion transport and greater hydrogen yield. With excellent chemical and mechanical resistance, our fabrics enhance membrane durability, reduce downtime, and improve long-term process efficiency. The fabrics are also available in custom roll formats, to reduce waste and set up time.
