The new hub will be operated by its subsidiary, Charbone Corporation USA. The facility is strategically positioned in the heart of the northeastern technology region.

According to the company, the Albany site will efficiently serve a diverse industrial clientele, including the semiconductor, artificial intelligence, healthcare, aerospace, and advanced industrial processes sectors.

Dave Gagnon, President and CEO of Charbone, said that Albany is the company’s strategic entry point into the United States.

Charbone is building a local infrastructure to deliver essential molecules to the industries of tomorrow, with an Ultra High Purity (UHP) quality standard, reliable execution, and a long-term vision, according to Gagnon. He added that the hub positions Charbone at the heart of a key technological ecosystem and reinforces its capacity to become a key player in industrial gases in North America.

Charbone specializes in industrial gases, focusing on developing and operating a network of logistics platforms for the production, storage, and distribution of strategic industrial gases at Ultra High Purity (UHP).

The company serves clients from sectors including semiconductors, artificial intelligence and data centers, advanced pharmaceuticals, and aerospace and defense technologies. Charbone is developing a network of UHP clean hydrogen production facilities in North America and in certain international markets. Its modular, decentralized, and demand-driven approach, combined with its integrated storage and distribution platform for all UHP gases, promotes controlled growth, reinforces operational flexibility, and enables more stable and diversified revenue generation, according to the company.

Charbone states that its model allows it to efficiently provide medium-sized industrial clients with a reliable supply of UHP gases, including hydrogen, helium, oxygen, and other gases found in high-demand components, which are often difficult to obtain.
