Page last modified
February 22 2024

SoluForce has developed a spoolable Reinforced Thermoplastic industrial Piping system (RTP or FCP) for hydrogen applications. Unique in the world of hydrogen transport and a global first. With a significantly lower CO eq. footprint compared to alternatives, this ready to use pipeline solution has a major impact on the feasibility of green hydrogen and a sustainable supply chain. Being non-metallic, it is fully flexible, corrosion-free, does not suffer from hydrogen embrittlement and is quick and simple to install
