UMOE Advanced Composites (UAC) has achieved a significant global growth milestone by shipping its first international shipment of Multi Element Gas Containers (MEGCs) from its China manufacturing facility. The delivery, which includes two 20-foot and three 40-foot MEGCs, is set to support the Hiringa Sundown Joint Venture's Good Earth Green Hydrogen and Ammonia (GEGHA) Project in New South Wales, Australia.
The project aims to utilize green hydrogen and low-carbon ammonia to decarbonize agriculture and transport, with support from the hiringa Energy and Sundown Pastoral Company. The shipment from UAC's Jiaxing facility marks a crucial step in the company's global expansion strategy, as it demonstrates the benefits of its dual manufacturing approach, combining established Norwegian technology with China's manufacturing scale and supply-chain strengths.
UAC's Type IV glass-fibre pressure cylinders, manufactured for the first time in China, will play a key role in the project's hydrogen storage and logistics infrastructure.
