Charbone Secures Additional UHP Hydrogen Orders and First U.S. Oxygen Order, Expanding Industrial Gas Platform

Charbone Corporation has announced securing additional orders from an existing U.S. customer based in New York State, including new orders for clean ultra-high purity hydrogen and the company's first order for ultra-high purity oxygen in the United States. This development follows the company's January 14, 2026, announcement regarding an initial hydrogen order from the same customer and represents a significant step in Charbone's commercial deployment in what it considers a strategic market for future growth.

The company, which maintains its primary production focus on clean ultra-high purity hydrogen, also delivers complementary industrial gases including oxygen, helium, and other specialty gases to support customer requirements. The addition of an ultra-high purity oxygen order alongside hydrogen orders is viewed as an important milestone in Charbone's roadmap toward developing a multi-molecule platform of ultra-high purity industrial gases. This strategy aligns with the needs of advanced technology and industrial sectors, particularly in regions like the American "Tech Valley."

Dave Gagnon, Charbone's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, stated that these new orders confirm both the strengthening relationship with the existing New York State customer and the relevance of the company's diversification strategy into ultra-high purity industrial gases. The company's objective centers on offering reliable supply and first-class purity standards to meet the highest demands of technology and industrial markets in North America.

In related corporate developments, Charbone announced on February 4, 2026, that it had retained the services of Momentum Public Relations Inc., a Montreal-based public relations and investor relations firm with expertise in supporting emerging companies in Canadian financial markets. Momentum specializes in designing targeted investor outreach programs for listed small and mid-cap companies, particularly in the resource sector, and holds a variable stake in Charbone with the right to increase its position using its own funds.
