India’s hydrogen economy is taking shape
26/05/2026
India is one of the world’s fastest-growing markets: Gross domestic product is expected to rise by 6.5 percent by fiscal year 2030. At the same time, the Indian government plans to expand non-fossil fuel power generation capacity to 500 GW by 2030.
Heat transition: North Rhine-Westphalia harnesses waste water heat
18/05/2026
The recovery of heat from wastewater is coming increasingly into focus as part of the heat transition and complements established renewable energy sources. In North Rhine-Westphalia, too, numerous projects for utilising wastewater heat from sewers and sewage treatment plants are already in operation or at the planning stage.
Pumps in the Process Industry – Key Components for Efficient and Safe Operations
11/05/2026
Pumps are central components of virtually all industrial processes. They reliably move liquids through complex systems, thereby playing a decisive role in ensuring the efficiency, safety, and stability of modern production.
Stronger Together: Why Mergers Are Shaping the Future of Industrial Valves
27/04/2026
The industrial valve and sealing technology sector are undergoing a transformation: More companies are turning to mergers and acquisitions to remain competitive in the global marketplace. Strategic acquisitions not only provide access to new markets and technologies but also boost efficiency and innovation.

Canada: The State of the Hydrogen Economy & Hydrogen Strategy
30/03/2026
Canada has enormous potential when it comes to renewable energy – from hydropower and wind to solar. In 2020, the country published its national hydrogen strategy. Since then, a network of technology companies, project developers and public funding institutions has taken shape.
Safety under high pressure: reliable seals for hydrogen systems
16/03/2026
Reliable sealing solutions are a crucial factor in hydrogen systems – they prevent leaks, increase safety and extend the service life of plants.
Ethernet APL: The quantum leap for valves and actuators
02/03/2026
They are indispensable in the process industry: valves, fittings, and their actuators form the backbone of every plant. Without them, nothing works, and stable production is only possible thanks to their precise control. Nevertheless, this crucial field level has remained surprisingly “analog” for a long time.
Gas supply: Germany relies increasingly on LNG
23/02/2026
Following the outbreak of the war in Ukraine and the associated energy crisis in 2022, imports of liquefied natural gas (LNG) have become increasingly important as a key pillar of Germany's gas supply. Within a short period of time, Wilhelmshaven 1, the first LNG terminal, was built and began operations in December 2022, with others following suit.
Hydrogen beyond heavy industry – How smaller industries can also benefit from H₂
02/02/2026
The requirements for modern sealing materials have risen steadily in recent years. Whereas the focus used to be primarily on basic sealing function and temperature resistance, today's criteria are significantly more complex.
