A new partnership between Carbon Cylinder and UniBoAT with Cavagna Group’s valves

It is within this context that the collaboration between Carbon Cylinder and UniBoAT emerges, uniting academic research and technology for the future of mobility.

Carbon Cylinder, a company specializing in the production of composite cylinders, has supplied the UniBoAT team with its Type 4 cylinders, designed for hydrogen storage.

These cylinders stand out for:

• Extremely lightweight – they are up to 50% lighter compared to metal solutions.
• Strength and durability – no corrosion, reduced maintenance, and long service life.
• Sustainability – they are fully recyclable, with a low environmental impact.
• Versatility – customizable solutions for various applications, from the marine to the industrial sector.

To complete the project, two 300-bar valves for H2, produced and supplied by Cavagna Group, were used.

Cavagna Group is a family-run concern founded in Italy, in 1949.

It has always specialized in the manufacture of equipment for processing, distributing, controlling and measuring all kinds of gases at all stages in various supply chains.

UniBoAT's choice of Carbon Cylinder is no coincidence: its lightweight and safe solutions are a key element in developing high-performance hydrogen propulsion systems.

Nor is the choice of valves made by Cavagna Group surprising, a company that has been committed for over 75 years to providing the best solutions for the use of all types of gases. It has long since expanded its product range to include hydrogen solutions, enabling their efficient and safe use.

This collaboration demonstrates how innovative companies and academic projects can work together to accelerate the transition towards more sustainable and technologically advanced mobility. To learn more about Carbon Cylinder, visit www.carboncylinder.com.
