GAS OPTIONS

Air Products gases, typically provided in gaseous and liquid form, enable
customers in a wide range of industries to improve their environmental
performance, product quality, and productivity.


ARGON

Argon, an inert gas, is commonly used in applications across metals production
operations to improve quality, and increase efficiency and yield.


HELIUM

An inert gas for cryogenic, heat transfer, shielding, leak detection, analytical
and lifting applications


HYDROGEN

Valued for its reactive and protective properties, and used by many industries
such as electronics, foods, glass, chemicals, refining and more can benefit from
its unique properties to improve quality, optimize performance and reduce costs.


NITROGEN

Nitrogen is routinely used in applications across foundries, integrated and mini
mills, specialty/stainless, and non-ferrous metals production operations.


OXYGEN

Oxygen can improve combustion through increased heat transfer, higher flame
temperatures, and reduced volume of fuel gases in metals production operations.


RARE GASES

Useful as ion beam sources to clean, cut or weld materials as well as their
unique ability to produce bright light, which may be in the form of a laser or a
light source. Also used in propulsion engines or in window insulation.


SPECIALITY GASES

UHP gases, process, calibration and ISO 17025 accredited mixtures in a wide
range of supply modes.
