Graham Hart Process Technology Becomes First Heat Transfer Manufacturer to Achieve Fit for Hydrogen and Carbon Capture Status
We’re proud to announce a major milestone for Graham Hart Process Technology.
We have become the first heat transfer manufacturer to be granted Fit for Hydrogen (F4H2) and Fit for Carbon Capture, Usage and Storage (F4CCUS) status under the UK’s new standards programme supporting the hydrogen production and carbon capture sectors.
This achievement reinforces our position as a trusted supplier to critical, high-integrity engineering projects and strengthens our offering to customers working on decarbonisation and energy transition initiatives across the UK and globally.
Supporting the Future of Low-Carbon Energy
Based in Bradford, Graham Hart Process Technology designs and manufactures high-integrity heat transfer equipment and specialised pressure-containing systems for demanding applications. Our products are used worldwide in industries where quality, safety, and performance are essential.
The F4H2 and F4CCUS accreditations confirm that we meet the specific technical, quality, and operational requirements needed to support hydrogen and carbon capture supply chains. To achieve granted status, our business successfully passed a series of rigorous assessments and audits covering quality management, performance, and delivery capability.
What the ‘Fit for’ Accreditations Mean
The Fit for Hydrogen and Fit for Carbon Capture, Usage and Storage programmes are government-backed initiatives designed to ensure companies within these emerging sectors can demonstrate:
- A clear understanding of customer and regulatory requirements
- Robust quality management systems
- Proven engineering capability and operational excellence
These standards are increasingly important for organisations delivering regional, national, and international projects focused on reducing carbon emissions and developing sustainable energy infrastructure.
Achieving granted status for both schemes further strengthens our proposition for customers seeking reliable, experienced partners for complex engineering programmes.
Building on a Strong Foundation
Commenting on the achievement, Chris Hart, Managing Director, said:
“Achieving F4H2 and F4CCUS status is a significant milestone in our service offering and demonstrates confidence in our capability to supply the growing hydrogen and carbon capture markets. We are the only heat exchange manufacturer to have achieved AMRC’s Fit for Nuclear accreditation, and these additions further strengthen our credentials as a leading manufacturer for the energy industry.”
The F4H2 and F4CCUS programmes were developed following a pilot scheme in the Humber region in 2023 and are now approved extensions of the established ‘Fit for’ supplier development model, led by the Nuclear Advanced Manufacturing Research Centre (AMRC). The Fit 4 Nuclear is now delivered exclusively by NucCol.
Looking Ahead
As the UK and global markets continue to invest in hydrogen and carbon capture technologies, Graham Hart Process Technology remains committed to supporting these industries with high-quality, engineered solutions backed by proven standards, experience, and technical expertise.
