Vision & Strategy
We believe in the long-term success of the hydrogen fuel cell and are further expanding our international technology leadership in the field of air compressors. With our sustainable and innovative products, we are making an important contribution to climate-neutral and ecological mobility.
For FISCHER Fuel Cell Compressor, the focus is clearly on customer benefits, and thanks to Swiss engineering and sales expertise, we are able to offer customised solutions. Together with our Chinese partner WEICHAI, we are investing in the development of global series production. In doing so, we not only want to invest in all fuel cell markets (transit bus, truck, marine, etc.), but also distribute FISCHER compressors in any quantities and offer them in all countries.
