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 New Zealand’s Hydrogen Market

New Zealand's abundant geothermal and wind resources provide low-cost renewable electricity for green hydrogen production. The country's dairy and agricultural sectors create demand for green ammonia, while heavy transport and remote communities present opportunities for hydrogen fuel.

IONZERA provides New Zealand with a high-performance AWE membrane accessible via the India-Oceania trade corridor, offering competitive pricing and shorter delivery than European alternatives.
