Safety is a top priority for Air Liquide, and while we strive to improve safety in all our operations, we also look for new technologies in wider ecosystems. That's why we are working with innovative #startups!
For instance, through ALIAD Venture Capital by Air Liquide, we collaborate with the startup Distran, focused on boosting safety standards in #hydrogen mobility. This partnership has been particularly fruitful:
✅ DISTRAN develops cutting-edge ultrasonic imaging cameras, allowing more effective monitoring and detection of potential gas leaks. In 2023, ALIAD took a minority participation in this start-up to support the company’s growth.
✅ In 2023, the start-up developed a new version of its "SonicView Pro" technology, specifically adapted to Air Liquide's needs, in close collaboration with experts from the Group.
✅ After having successfully demonstrated their performance and reliability, these #cameras can now be used in heavy-duty hydrogen refueling stations and filling centers designed by Air Liquide advanced Technologies.
By supporting innovative start-ups, we create a win-win relationship with technological, strategic and financial opportunities for both start-ups and Air Liquide! 🎯
