Ariel Corporation, the world's largest manufacturer of reciprocating compressors, and HOERBIGER, the world's leading supplier of reciprocating compressor components, announce their agreement to develop dry-running compressor solutions for the hydrogen mobility market.

The solutions developed under this partnership meet the too-future requirements of a modern hydrogen refueling infrastructure for public transportation and heavy-duty vehicles such as buses, trains or ships.
