On 30 March 2022, at The Hydrogen Future Rewards which is part of the”Connecting Green Hydrogen MENA 2022” event, SIAD Macchine Impianti (SIAD MI) has been awarded the "Hydrogen Rising Star Company of the Year". This event which focused on the topic of hydrogen produced from renewable sources, is held from March 29 to 31 at the Palazzo Versace in Dubai (United Arab Emirates).

The award acknowledges SIAD MI's proficiency in the development of new solutions relating to the compression and liquefaction of green hydrogen. Through its parent company SIAD, which has been producing and distributing technical gases for almost a century plus its direct experience with thousands of customers throughout the world, SIAD MI boasts the dedicated and specific know-how to compress, manage and liquefy hydrogen, and in particular green hydrogen. The main focus is on reciprocating compressors: SIAD MI manufactures these units according to the “lean” methodology, which combines a modular design with the integration of digital systems, minimizing waste and maximizing performance. This is supported by the Remote Assistance and Remote Monitoring services, remote services of continuous assistance and maintenance managed by SIAD MI technicians. In recent years, SIAD MI's efforts have focused on the compression of green hydrogen at very high pressures using oil-free technology. Safety, reliability, efficiency, maintainability and connectivity: these are the most important features offered by SIAD MI's hydrogen compressors. SIAD MI also designs and manufactures air separation plants using cryogenic technology. These plants make it possible to distill the main gases in air, thus obtaining nitrogen, oxygen and argon of very high purity, in liquid or gaseous phase. SIAD MI's significant knowledge of cryogenic processes has enabled it to develop and offer the market natural gas liquefaction plants, used in particular in Small Scale LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) plants for the re-liquefaction of gas evaporating from storage (the so-called BOG, an acronym for "Boil Off Gas"). Specific expertise on cryogenic gas liquefaction technologies has now also allowed SIAD MI to engage in research and development of processes for hydrogen liquefaction.

The award given to SIAD Macchine Impianti is a great achievement for the entire SIAD Group and confirms its position as a key player in the international market within the green hydrogen management sector.
