Agfa advances sustainable innovation through strategic collaboration with VITO and EU funding for green hydrogen production

Agfa will continue its collaboration with VITO, a global technology development center, to pioneer a new generation of separator membranes for alkaline water electrolyzers. Agfa and VITO have a rich shared history within this field, which resulted in the commercial launch of the first generation of ZIRFON membranes in 2007. Within their extended collaboration, VITO will work with Agfa on developing novel porous gas separator membranes to improve electrolyzer performance and reduce overall hydrogen production cost. Agfa and VITO will actively pursue funding opportunities to further boost their joint research, including Belgian federal (e.g. Clean Hydrogen for Clean Industry) and regional (e.g. VLAIO) calls.
