Three projects, totaling 300 m² and encompassing an assembly line and a laboratory, were completed for ELOGEN, a specialist in electrolyzers producing green hydrogen.
Construction of 300 m² within an existing building.
ELOGEN is the French leader in PEM (proton exchange membrane) electrolysis. The company designs and assembles electrolyzers for the production of green hydrogen from water, utilizing the effect of direct current. This advanced technology serves the industrial and energy markets, both in France and internationally.
For this rapidly expanding activity, VÊPRES has completed three projects within two years, covering a total area of 300 m². The scope notably includes an assembly line, as well as an isolated and confined area adjacent to the assembly operations: a laboratory.
Project constraints and specific requirements
Since the original building was not initially designed to support an additional load, the development of the 300 m² area necessitated the prior construction of a self-supporting structure. This room was built in a constrained environment, featuring an overhead crane and a jib crane, both bulky pieces of equipment positioned very close to the ceiling.
The project was also executed within a very short timeframe, in an area that remained operational, conditions that demanded greater flexibility and coordination. Furthermore, an existing plant was dismantled and reinstalled in one of the new rooms. This relocation minimized industrial investment for ELOGEN.

Mastering a Demanding Environment
To support ELOGEN's growth, VÊPRES completed three projects totaling 300 m² over two years. These projects included an assembly line and an isolated laboratory area. A self-supporting structure was constructed as the existing building could not bear additional load. The construction was carried out in a challenging environment, accommodating bulky equipment near the ceiling.
