AGC Inc. is a Japanese materials and solutions company with roots dating back to 1907, when it began as Japan's first flat glass manufacturer. Today, AGC operates across three core business segments: Glass, Electronics, and Chemicals, generating annual sales of over EUR 11 billion, with a strong presence not only in Japan and Asia but also across Europe and the Americas.
AGC Chemicals Europe, based in Amsterdam and Thornton-Cleveleys (UK), serves as the European sales and marketing base for AGC's fine chemicals business. Building on AGC's long-standing expertise in fluorochemistry and specialty materials, we are actively expanding our portfolio in the hydrogen and CO₂ capture space.
Our key offerings for the hydrogen and CCUS value chain include:
- XOL-Series, a non-aqueous CO₂ absorption solution that significantly reduces reboiler duty and enables desorption below 100°C, offering major energy savings compared to conventional aqueous amine systems. This technology was publicly demonstrated at Expo 2025 Osaka, Kansai.
- Amine-functionalized SUNSPHERE™ silica sorbents, designed for both Direct Air Capture (DAC) and point-source capture applications.
- Fluoropolymer-based ion exchange membranes and ionomer binder materials, supporting water electrolysis and fuel cell technologies.
We are seeking industrial partners, engineering companies, and end-users interested in evaluating our CO₂ capture materials and hydrogen-related fluoropolymer solutions, as we work together toward a decarbonized future.
