CHARBONE Corporation has continued its helium market activities by refilling a dedicated trailer to serve an existing customer in Ontario. This operation confirms the commercial continuity of the company's Helium division, initially launched in 2025, and aligns with its strategy to build an integrated platform for the distribution of strategic industrial gases across North America. The Type 1 cylinder trailer, specifically dedicated to helium, has been refilled under the current supply agreement with an independent distributor in Ontario. This demonstrates CHARBONE's operational capability to deliver reliable and recurring service in a high-demand market.
The company reiterates that helium represents a complementary pillar to its core Ultra High Purity hydrogen business, enabling diversification of revenue streams while optimizing logistics networks and customer relationships. In the current context of geopolitical tensions and supply constraints in global helium markets, CHARBONE is particularly well positioned, having anticipated the development of this segment as previously announced. Dave Gagnon, CHARBONE's Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board, stated that the decision to integrate helium reflects a clear vision to build a complete and resilient industrial gas company capable of serving customers with diversified and secure solutions.
He emphasized that in an uncertain global environment, the ability to reliably deliver critical molecules such as helium and hydrogen becomes a key competitive advantage. The company intends to continue developing its Helium division across North America by leveraging supply partnerships, logistics capabilities, and sustained growth in demand from key sectors. These sectors include electronics, healthcare, advanced manufacturing, and high-tech industries. The company's forward-looking statements and additional information are available through regulatory filings, including those on SEDAR+, and the corporate website at www.charbone.com.
