Fast Sample Availability

G-Hexa provides small-quantity membrane samples for pilot-scale testing, with shorter lead times than European suppliers. Perfect for R&D programs and proof-of-concept installations.

Performance at Any Scale

IONZERA's 3x lower area resistance delivers efficiency benefits whether your electrolyser is 10 kW or 10 MW, making every pilot project a showcase of what is achievable at full scale.

Technical Partnership

G-Hexa's engineering team provides hands-on support for membrane integration into custom electrolyser designs, from cell sizing to operating parameter optimization.

Custom Membrane Sizing

Pilot and decentralized electrolysers often use non-standard cell formats. G-Hexa offers custom cutting and sizing for IONZERA membranes to match your specific cell geometry.

Pilot & Decentralized H2 Plants in Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh's steel heritage is transforming into a clean steel future through hydrogen-based direct reduction. The city hosts major steel research institutions and industrial gas companies investing in electrolyser-based hydrogen for decarbonization. Pittsburgh is also part of the Appalachian hydrogen hub initiative.

For Pittsburgh steel decarbonization projects, the cost of hydrogen is the key economic variable. IONZERA's 3x lower membrane resistance directly reduces the electricity cost per kg of hydrogen, improving the competitiveness of green hydrogen vs conventional processes.
