With our partners AIGA, CGA and JIMGA, we have developed a Hydrogen Safety Ecosystem web-application. See here (www.h2safety.info).
Our publications have supported safe hydrogen operations for decades.
Now, many new organisations are getting involved in hydrogen, with the best of intentions and brilliant ideas, but not necessarily backed up by the same safety expertise that our sector has.
We therefore decided to support a safer rollout by sharing our safety knowledge that is captured in dozens of hydrogen safety publications, and disclose that info via an easy to access web portal.
The "ecosystem" portal was launched at the Hydrogen 2022 conference in Amsterdam. You are invited to follow EIGA on LinkedIn, where you'll find out more.

TB 44/22 - Environmental Control and Monitoring for Medicinal Gas Cylinders
TB 44/22 - Environmental Control and Monitoring for Medicinal Gas Cylinders
This Technical Bulletin provides the rationale for the storage and handling requirements for medicinal gas cylinders, specifically to justify the reasons why it is not necessary to control the temperature or humidity of the areas where medicinal gas cylinders are stored, or the design of vehicles used for distribution
TB 45/22 - General Safety and Performance Requirements of Medical Device Regulation applied to Carbon Dioxide
TB 45/22 - General Safety and Performance Requirements of Medical Device Regulation applied to Carbon Dioxide
This Technical Bulletin provides guidance on the interpretation of the General Safety and Performance Requirements in annex I of the Medical Device Regulation, when applied to gaseous Carbon Dioxide as a medical device, i.e. for insufflation, and to provide recommendations on how to implement them.

SI 44/22 – Awareness Package - Events at Customer Premises
SI 44/22 – Awareness Package - Events at Customer Premises
In the supply of industrial and medical gases to customers and their subsequent use and application, EIGA members regularly see critical incidents or near misses.
Lack of knowledge or risk awareness can result in wrong handling of equipment, inadequate application of the product or even misuse of equipment/products and can lead to severe incidents or potentially high-risk scenarios.
This Awareness Package is intended to alert customers to these situations and provide some discussion points to be considered.
