Industries

Reliable Reducing Atmosphere Supply

Float glass tin baths operate 24/7 and cannot tolerate hydrogen supply interruptions. On-site electrolysis with IONZERA membranes ensures continuous, demand-matched H2 generation.

Lower Per-Unit H2 Cost

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance reduces the electricity cost of on-site hydrogen generation compared to less efficient electrolyser membranes.

Decarbonize Glass Production

Replacing delivered fossil-derived hydrogen with renewable-powered on-site electrolysis reduces the carbon footprint of glass manufacturing.

Glass Manufacturing in Canada’s Hydrogen Market

Canada's Hydrogen Strategy positions the country as a major hydrogen producer and exporter. Alberta's oil and gas expertise is pivoting toward clean hydrogen, while British Columbia leverages hydropower for green electrolysis. Calgary and Edmonton are emerging as hydrogen technology and deployment hubs.

IONZERA supports Canadian hydrogen ambitions with a high-performance membrane that improves electrolysis efficiency, helping Canadian projects compete in the global clean hydrogen market.
