Successful Participation at the Hydrogen Technology Expo in Hamburg

Sustainability Hydrogen Sustainability

This year, following the move from Bremen to Hamburg, the Hydrogen Technology Expo was once again a great success.

Share it on

The event continues to grow year by year and provided us with the opportunity to have many interesting conversations and make valuable contacts.

For those who missed the expo or would like to review our presentations, we warmly invite you to take a look at our virtual booth. This is a great opportunity to learn about our latest innovations and solutions in the field of hydrogen technology.

We thank everyone who visited us in Hamburg and look forward to more exciting encounters next year.

Hydrogen Events – Documents and Information

Freudenberg Sealing Technologies is keeping a close eye on modern energy solutions: This is because the high demand and rapid expansion of production capacities for electrolysers and fuel cells in particular pose a host of challenges for many components in the stack, such as when it comes to seals: suitable sealing solutions and materials are needed for the switch from manual production to semi- or fully-automated production of high volumes. Also crucial: easy assembly and high safety as well as a long service life when in contact with very harsh and aggressive environments. In the case of electrolysers, for example, elastomer seals on the thermoplastic frame with an integrated seal direct the flow of gases and heat and compensate for manufacturing tolerances of the adjacent stack components. Through their integration, they facilitate handling, increase assembly speed and extend service life. In sealing solutions for fuel cell systems, specific elastomer seals at the gas diffusion layer prevent leakage and crossover, while effectively compensating for the tolerances of adjacent stack components and any thermal expansion/distortion. This also makes these sensitive devices suited for mass production.
