"We have not changed the way we treat the customer, whether we’re a $3 million company or an almost $2 billion company. Our associates remain extremely focused on providing great service, acting as though it’s their business and their customer. There’s a big difference between a customer service person who just takes orders and one who takes orders to heart.”
 
  In 20 years, Airgas has grown from a single, small, gas distribution company to the industry leader. Through more than 300 acquisitions, we have built a national company, with nearly 800 locations. Within this network are local specialists in key product areas who provide technical assistance and customer service. This strong local presence on a national scale helps us serve customers, whether they are looking for a supplier of choice locally or across the country.
