Applications
We supply alternative fuel cylinders for all major forms of transportation, including buses, trucks, trains, forklifts, boats and aviation – so whatever you need us for, we’re ready to go.
Luxfer offers a range of lightweight cylinders and accessories for hydrogen fuel cell-powered vehicles.
Using hydrogen or CNG for your transit fleet provides a cost-effective fuel solution with a comparable range as diesel but without the harmful emissions.
Luxfer CNG and hydrogen fuel cell-powered solutions will provide your fleet comparable power with the benefits of fast filling and a long driving range.
Hydrogen and CNG-powered refuse trucks typically have the same range and fueling times as their diesel counterparts but are much quieter and have reduced maintenance costs.
Luxfer CNG and hydrogen fuel cell-powered solutions will transform your delivery fleet and help you meet your company's environmental goals.
150 school districts in the US rely on CNG buses. Our solutions can help reduce emissions, improve passenger health, and lowering maintenance and running costs.
Hydrogen offers many benefits to marine transport - fewer moving parts, quieter operation and fume free. An efficient and clean alternative.
Zero-emission solutions for the rail industry allowing near-silent operation, improved service possibilities and massively reduced infrastructure costs.
Fuel-cell powered drones can fly for much longer offering significant benefits to film, inspection, and inventory scanning industries.
With a higher energy to mass ratio than batteries, hydrogen fuel cells last longer and can be refueled quicker, making them a great fit warehouses and distribution centers.

Available in an extensive range of sizes, G-Stor Pro cylinders consist of a Luxfer-manufactured aluminum liner fully over-wrapped with aerospace-grade carbon fiber. The high thermal conductivity of the aluminum liner helps remove heat from the gas generated during a fast fill, providing a more complete fill every time.
