World's highest performing pressure vessels · Since 1996
Pressure vessels for the edge of possible.
HyPerComp Engineering designs, analyzes, tests, manufactures, and certifies filament-wound high-pressure COPVs — from space launch to hydrogen mobility.
COPV Design, Development, Qualification, & Production.
One team for the full vessel lifecycle.
Our dedicated production facility delivers volume manufacturing without a supplier transition. Once your program moves past development and qualification, we scale with you — with predictable delivery schedules and per-vessel unit cost that improves as volume grows.
We manufacture COPVs and filament-wound structures to your drawing package. Whether you need a qualified second source, overflow capacity, or a domestic supplier for a design developed in-house, we build to your spec and existing qual data.
Applications & Use-Cases.
We build for ultra-high pressures, exceptional cycle life, and extreme operating environments.
Space launch & aerospace
COPVs for launch vehicles and spacecraft — including the first-ever Type IV vessels to fly in manned spaceflight.
Defense & UAV
Light-weight fuel-storage COPVs qualified for military and commercial unmanned aerial and underwater vehicles.
Transportation & Hydrogen storage.
High-pressure gaseous and cryogenic hydrogen COPVs for fuel-cell vehicles and the wider hydrogen economy.
Breathing & industrial gas
Self-contained breathing apparatus, medical and recreational vessels, and industrial gas infrastructure.
Material evaluation and characterization testing.
Our vessels are unique high-fidelity test vehicles for fiber-resin system evaluation. Material suppliers regularly engage HyPerComp to validate new and innovative material systems.
World leaders in lightweight pressure vessel design since 1996.
Founded in 1996, HyPerComp has dedicated thirty years to advancing the science and engineering of composite pressure vessels — expanding the industry's knowledge base through rigorous testing, material research, and continuous design innovation. We are constantly pushing the boundaries of weight, cost, and performance.
Our proprietary Type IV design is now in its third generation and has been qualified across more than 15 aerospace and commercial applications. HyPerComp delivered the first-ever Type IV vessels to fly in manned spaceflight.
We support our customers through range safety submittals, and help prepare for flight readiness and launch.
Designs qualified across aerospace, hydrogen, defense, and commercial standards.
