CHARBONE Advances Hydrogen Production with Equipment Delivery and Civil Works Launch

CHARBONE CORPORATION has announced the safe and incident-free reception of all major components of its production equipment at the Sorel-Tracy site, marking a decisive step in the project's progress. This delivery enables the mobilization of site teams to officially launch civil works on Monday, October 27, 2025, representing the first phase of operations leading to complete equipment reinstallation, connection and commissioning scheduled for November 2025.

The equipment delivery follows the strategic transaction announced on October 7, 2025, through which CHARBONE secured hydrogen production assets. This acquisition allows the Company to significantly reduce its capital costs while accelerating its time to market through the integration of already proven and efficient equipment. The Company is building a distributed network of green hydrogen production plants while diversifying revenues via helium and specialty gas partnerships.

CHARBONE is listed on multiple exchanges including the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV: CH), the OTC Markets (OTCQB: CHHYF), and the Frankfurt Stock Exchange (FSE: K47).

This development represents significant progress in CHARBONE's modular approach to hydrogen production, which reduces risk and enhances flexibility in the transition to a low-carbon future. The successful equipment delivery and upcoming civil works demonstrate tangible advancement in the Company's operational timeline toward becoming a North American producer and distributor of clean Ultra High Purity hydrogen and strategic industrial gases.
