The components used for the transport or storage of green hydrogen require hydrogen-resistant properties to ensure the safety of this critical infrastructure. Hydrogen atoms can diffuse into metallic materials and lead to material failure due to hydrogen embrittlement. Stainless steels of grades 1.4435, 1.4404 and 1.4307 are used as standard for components that come into contact with hydrogen. For particularly critical applications with extreme corrosion resistance requirements, for example in aggressive chemical environments, stainless steels such as 1.4439, 1.4462 (duplex) and 1.4410 (super duplex) have proven their worth due to their higher strength and improved resistance. By selecting the right material, it is possible to ensure that the integrity and safety of components in hydrogen-ducting systems is maintained over long periods of time.

We at Sommer & Strassburger GmbH have been building buffer tanks for hydrogen since 2004 and look forward to supporting you with our many years of expertise.

As part of our anniversary competition, we received some much appreciated feedback from Phillipp Ettle, General Manager BWT Pharma & Biotech GmbH from Bietigheim-Bissingen:

‘Congratulations!!! Here are a few older pictures. This was a very big and important project for us at the time and we were very grateful for the wonderful collaboration.’

We would like to thank you for this feedback and look forward to further contributions from our 50-year history. We are looking forward to our next joint project in the pharmaceutical sector.

We are expanding our service for American customers with a new sales office in Fort Mill (near Charlotte) in the US state of South Carolina. Our sales representative Mike Birkle has recently become your contact on site and can therefore be reached directly and, above all, without a time difference. This not only shortens communication channels and response times, but also makes it easier for you to handle demanding projects on American soil. Mike will advise you on your stainless steel projects and coordinate all processes with our German development and production facilities at INEX, Hubl GmbH and Sommer & Strassburger GmbH. The new US sales office is located on Old Bails Road in Fort Mill and is therefore easily accessible via the Fort Mill Highway. The exact address from which Mike Birkle will support you, your concerns and projects is INEX-solutions USA, Inc. 9499 Old Bails Road, Suite 216 Fort Mill, SC 29707. Mike himself can be reached for enquiries by mobile phone at +1(704) 906-3967 or by e-mail at mike.birkle(at)inex-solutions.de.

We would like to say THANK YOU for visiting our stand at the ACHEMA trade fair.

Five successful days with plenty of informative discussions with many visitors lie behind us.

If you were unable to make it to Frankfurt, we would like to invite you to take a look at our new pharmaceutical product catalogue or contact us directly.
