Industrial gases are used for a wide range of applications in the chemical industry.
They are not only crucial to chemical synthesis, but also helpful in making processes and plants more cost-efficient, raising product quality and plant safety levels, and protecting the environment.
Looking beyond their role as components in synthesis processes, industrial gases are important for a large number of production processes in the chemical industry.
Nitrogen and carbon dioxide, for example, may be used for inerting, blanketing, purging, drying or cooling reactors in order to exclude oxygen, displace or refill combustible liquids or gases, protect sensitive goods against oxidation or purge pipelines. Hydrogen can be used to prepare boiler feed water for generating steam.
Industrial gases have a long and proven track record in the construction and tyre industries as well as in the industrial cleaning sector.
In the environmental technologies market, industrial gases help identify and eliminate pollutants, re-use raw materials and conserve natural resources.
We supply our gases through a wide variety of channels and media to accommodate the vast range of product, process and capacity requirements. Our reliable, cost-efficient service covers a broad spectrum of technical solutions for application-specific needs.
