Trinity Biotech’s Trinovium Secures Open Compute Project Membership, Advancing Hyperscale Market Access and Commercial Validation for AI Data Center Liquid Cooling
- Milestone an important step in launching Trinovium within the global AI data center ecosystem
- Data center liquid cooling market projected to expand from $4 billion in 2026 to $27 billion by 20331
DUBLIN, Ireland and WILSONVILLE, Ore (June 30, 2026) - Trinity Biotech plc (Nasdaq: TRIB), a commercial stage biotechnology company focused on human diagnostics and the development of innovative solutions addressing unmet clinical and industrial needs, today announced that Trinovium, its recently established subsidiary focused on high-performance liquid cooling solutions for AI data centers, has secured Silver Membership in the Open Compute Project (OCP), providing Trinovium with a platform to directly engage with one of the most influential global ecosystems shaping next-generation data center infrastructure.
This milestone follows Trinity Biotech’s recent launch of Trinovium and represents an important step in launching Trinovium within the global AI infrastructure ecosystem.
The Open Compute Project is a global, collaborative community that brings together leading hyperscale data center operators, semiconductor companies, hardware manufacturers, and technology innovators to develop and standardize next-generation data center infrastructure. OCP membership includes many of the world’s most influential technology companies operating at hyperscale, collectively shaping the design, deployment, and standards that underpin modern cloud and AI infrastructure.
Trinovium’s acceptance as a Silver Member positions Trinity Biotech to actively contribute to emerging standards in data center design - particularly in the rapidly evolving liquid cooling segment driven by increasing compute density and AI workloads.
The Company believes this membership will:
Accelerate product development, validation and adoption, through engagement with industry working groups defining next-generation cooling architectures
Provide structured pathways for product accreditation, enabling Trinovium’s coolant technologies and monitoring solutions to meet evolving hyperscale specifications
Enhance access to hyperscale customers and ecosystem partners, where OCP serves as a key forum for technology evaluation and collaboration
Strengthen Trinity Biotech’s credibility as a new entrant focused on applying healthcare-grade fluid science to mission-critical infrastructure
John Gillard, Chief Executive Officer of Trinity Biotech, commented:
“Joining the Open Compute Project marks an important milestone in the development of Trinovium. OCP sits at the center of the global data center innovation ecosystem, and membership provides us with a direct channel to engage with the companies and standards shaping the future of AI infrastructure.
We believe Trinovium’s differentiated approach—leveraging Trinity Biotech’s deep expertise in high-purity fluid formulation, analytical chemistry, and quality control—aligns strongly with the increasing performance and reliability demands of liquid-cooled AI data centers.”

Building Momentum in a Multi Billion-Dollar Market
The award of OCP Silver Membership further supports Trinity Biotech’s strategic entry into the rapidly growing liquid cooling market, where rising AI and high-performance computing power densities are accelerating demand for advanced thermal management solutions. According to MarketsandMarkets, the data center liquid cooling market is projected to grow from $4 billion in 2026 to $27 billion by 2033, representing a 31.5% CAGR2.
As previously announced, Trinovium is leveraging Trinity Biotech’s existing US and EU manufacturing capacity, high-purity fluid expertise, and analytical technologies to address liquid cooling performance and reliability requirements in AI and high-performance computing environments. This creates a capital-efficient route into the high-growth liquid cooling market while offering the potential to generate additional operating leverage from existing assets.
The Company believes that participation in OCP will support the development and validation of these solutions within real-world hyperscale environments, accelerating commercialization timelines.
