NEW! Vena® Fuel cells The perfect solution for fuel cell lines!

Cooling water hose for fuel cell lines

Venair group launches Vena® Fuel cells, a hybrid elastomer suitable for all fuel cell lines

Venair’s R&D department presents new material, VENA® FUEL CELL, an elastomer composite especially designed for the use in Fuel Cells. This material has been designed to fulfill the main requirements in Fuel Cell applications and contribute to the overall efficiency of these systems.

The use of high purity and quality raw materials in VENA® FUEL CELL ensures the ultra-low content of leachable substances and component inertness in Fuel Cell ambient.

The low permeability and mechanical properties of VENA® FUEL CELL make it a good election for the whole construction of the hoses, not only the inner layer that leading to the improvement of the overall permeability of the hose.
