Future-Proofing Gas and Hydrogen Pressfit Piping Installations
Surepress - Backed by AGA and DVGW Certifications
AGA (Australian Gas Association) certification is essential for anyone working with gas systems in Australia. It confirms that a product meets stringent local standards for safety and performance in natural gas applications, giving installers, engineers and specifiers the confidence to work without compromise.
But what sets Surepress apart is the addition of DVGW certification, a globally recognised endorsement from the German Technical and Scientific Association for Gas and Water. This isn’t just another compliance mark. It’s a signal of innovation, future readiness, and international credibility, especially in the context of the global shift toward hydrogen as a clean energy source.
The Added Value of DVGW Certification
While multiple systems in Australia may carry AGA approval, Allmach’s Surepress is the only stainless steel pressfit solution with both AGA and DVGW certification in one system. That’s a rare combination; locally trusted, internationally recognised, and uniquely versatile.
The most recent DVGW DG-8531BP0364 certificate confirms that the fittings are suitable for use with natural gas, hydrogen blends, and even 100% pure hydrogen. It also carries the “H2-Ready” designation, highlighting its suitability for next-generation gas infrastructure.
- Simplified approvals across gas and water projects
- Confidence in system integrity over time, even as energy sources evolve
- Greater installation efficiency, with a flame-free, mechanical pressfit system
- Versatility across project types, from commercial builds to future-focused infrastructure
- Assurance that the system supports a transition to low- or zero-emission gas networks
The Importance of Hydrogen as a Clean Energy Solution
Hydrogen is quickly becoming a leading option for reducing emissions across industry and energy. It produces zero direct emissions (only water vapour) and, if produced sustainably, offers a cleaner alternative to fossil fuels. With hydrogen projects already on the radar for governments and utilities, systems that are pre-certified for hydrogen give engineers and developers a head start.
Dual Certification Providing Added Security
According to Roy Pugh, Head of Sales at Allmach, this dual certification is already delivering measurable advantages on real-world projects.
“Having both AGA and DVGW approvals in one system represents a significant step forward for the industry,” says Roy. “It removes friction from the design and specification process, opens up more flexibility across project types, and gives our customers long-term confidence in quality and compliance.”
For gas professionals, engineers, and contractors planning both current and future infrastructure, the Surepress pressfit solution offers something no other system in Australia can: proven local compliance and internationally certified hydrogen readiness in a single, efficient platform.
