VDMA Technical Guidelines (VDMA Einheitsblätter) are technical rules developed by expert working groups and reflect the current state of the art. Recently, three new guidelines focusing on hydrogen technologies have been finalized and submitted to DIN. They are now available for public review on the VDMA website and can be commented on until 1 March 2026.
