Hexagon Purus has agreed to purchase 40% of the liquid hydrogen business of Cryoshelter. The transaction follows Hexagon Composites’ acquisition of a 40% stake in Cryoshelter’s liquid natural gas (LNG) business. Cryoshelter’s liquid hydrogen tank technology is in its infancy and is based on superior and differentiated LNG technology that delivers greater fuel capacity and longer hold durations (a vital requirement for cryogenic storage) than competitor products. The acquisition adds early-stage experience in liquid hydrogen tank technology for zero-emission mobility applications, which could result in a future complementary product to Hexagon Purus’ market-leading compressed hydrogen cylinder technology. The transaction’s essential…
