We assist companies,
from the first idea, right through to deploying solutions,
from consulting through to operational training,
to facilitate and ensure their strategic choices.
Meeting manufacturers :
Listening and understanding are the watchwords of this critical part of our relationship and collaboration with you:
Our mission:
To support our clients in their decision-making and facilitate their strategic choices, in order to safely accelerate their access to the most suitable hydrogen solutions (gaseous and liquid).
Being by your side:
The support we offer is designed to keep you from heading down the wrong path…
in defining your project,
in aligning with your set objectives,
and in the way you move forward with studies, testing, and qualification.
From the design of your hydrogen infrastructure to the deployment of your solution — including simulations — we’ll be by your side:
on-site, at your premises,
at our Toulouse-Cugnaux offices,
or potentially at the Hydrogen Platform in Toulouse, which offers its resources in support of your project.
