James Cropper, the Advanced Materials and Paper & Packaging group, announces that it has entered a strategic collaboration with global industrial technology leader HOERBIGER, to deliver Ready2Stack™; a fully integrated bipolar plate (BPP) solution for proton exchange membrane (PEM) electrolysers used in the production of hydrogen.
The solution addresses key barriers to the scale-up of hydrogen production by consolidating all design and manufacturing processes in the production of BPPs – a critical component within PEM electrolysers – into a single point of supply. This reduces complexity, improves quality, and reduces the overall cost of hydrogen production.
Combining James Cropper’s advanced electrochemistry and coating expertise and HOERBIGER’s industrial-scale manufacturing, metal forming and automation capabilities, Ready2Stack™ delivers reduced production downtime and enhances long-term reliability, making green hydrogen more accessible and commercially viable. It offers a differentiated solution for OEMs seeking to simplify supply chains, optimise their offering, and accelerate green hydrogen ambitions.
