The environmentally friendly element hydrogen has long been used for a great variety of industrial purposes. Since petroleum sources are dwindling, the phase of technical implementation is now setting in for the transport application as well, which will multiply the demand for hydrogen. Linde sees itself as a trailblazer and pacesetter leading the way to the hydrogen era. The company has comprehensive, unrivaled expertise throughout the entire value-added chain. That includes production, liquefaction, purification, storage, distribution and tank-filling.
