(OTC BB:DCHT) is expanding its hydrogen sensor manufacturing facilities, more than doubling their current facility.

DCH Technology's newly appointed production manager, James K. Sobie, stated, "This expansion of our sensor based equipment manufacturing plant is necessary to accommodate the growing demand for our products. What is particularly exciting is the broad range of different industries asking us to address their needs."
