Industries

Contaminant-Free Hydrogen

Electrolytic hydrogen is produced from water and electricity, inherently free from the hydrocarbon residues that can be present in SMR-derived hydrogen. Ideal for food-contact applications.

On-Demand Generation

Match hydrogen production to processing schedules. IONZERA's rapid wetting properties support start-stop operation patterns common in batch food processing.

Regulatory Compliance Support

On-site electrolytic hydrogen simplifies compliance with food safety regulations by providing a transparent, traceable gas source with consistent purity.

Food-Grade Hydrogen in France’s Hydrogen Market

France has committed EUR 7.2 billion to its hydrogen strategy, targeting 6.5 GW of electrolyser capacity by 2030. With strong nuclear baseload power and growing renewable capacity, France has a cost-competitive electricity base for green hydrogen production. Industrial hydrogen demand from refineries and chemical plants in Lyon, Marseille, and the Rhone valley drives near-term electrolysis deployment.

IONZERA's 3x lower resistance improves electrolyser efficiency, complementing France's low-carbon electricity advantage. For French OEMs and project developers, IONZERA offers diversified sourcing with competitive pricing from Indian manufacturing.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why choose IONZERA for food-grade hydrogen in France?

IONZERA delivers 3x lower ionic resistance than Zirfon, making it ideal for food-grade hydrogen applications in France. IONZERA's 3x lower resistance improves electrolyser efficiency, complementing France's low-carbon electricity advantage.

How does IONZERA fit France's hydrogen decarbonization strategy?

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the electricity consumption per kg of hydrogen, improving the economics of electrolysis powered by France's nuclear and renewable electricity mix. This directly supports France's 6.5 GW electrolyser deployment target.

Can IONZERA be delivered to French industrial hydrogen projects?

Yes. G-Hexa ships IONZERA globally via air freight (5-7 days to France) or sea freight for volume orders. Technical support and sample requests are handled directly by the G-Hexa team.
