H2 times 2 in May – ELAFLEX present at leading hydrogen trade fairs

ELAFLEX Group will participate in two European hydrogen trade fairs and conferences in May 2025: the World Hydrogen Summit & Exhibition in Rotterdam and HYDROGEN EXPO Italy 2025 in Piacenza. ELAFLEX is showcasing solutions and products for the safe and effective handling of hydrogen (H2), liquid hydrogen (LH2) and liquefied CO2 (carbon capture).

Hydrogen is considered as a core element of a results-oriented decarbonisation strategy. Accordingly, there is currently an intensive exchange of ideas across industries and national borders, particularly at trade fairs and conferences. In May 2025, two hydrogen trade fairs will take place almost simultaneously – but more than 1,100 km apart: the World Hydrogen Summit & Exhibition in Rotterdam, Netherlands, and HYDROGEN EXPO Italy in the Lombardy city of Piacenza. Both events cover specific topics and target audiences addressed by the ELAFLEX Group’s range of solutions.

As a leading international specialist in refuelling technology, the group of companies has been involved in the field of alternative energy sources (ammonia, hydrogen, LNG, CNG) and liquefied CO2 for many years. ELAFLEX experts therefore have in-depth knowledge in the field of H2/LH2. Ensuring maximum operatoring safety, uncompromising environmental protection, elaborate ergonomics and above-average flow rates along the entire transfer chain are the focus of the ELAFLEX Group’s globally active hydrogen specialists.
At stand A32 in Ahoy Rotterdam and E 247 at Expo Piacenza, trade visitors can expect to see the following solutions and products, among others:

• H2+ hose assemblies, couplings and rubber expanding joints ERV-H2+ from ELAFLEX for the safe transfer of 100% hydrogen, 100% natural gas or in varying mixtures (Hythan) in the low pressure range
• Refuelling couplings for liquid hydrogen with matching hose assemblies for manual (N-LH2) or semi-automatic, pneumatically assisted (N-LH2-P) operation
• Newly developed nozzle for vehicles with 350 bar (ELAFLEX N-H2-H35) or 700 bar (ELAFLEX N-H2-H70UHF)
• New valves, manifolds and quick couplings for mobile pressure equipment up to 520 bar to significantly increase the flow rate when refuelling with compressed hydrogen
• Dry couplings and hose assemblies for the sophisticated handling of liquefied CO2 in CCS processes
