Airgas Online Annual Report 2003

  “We are working aggressively to grow our market share in the Chicago area, and MicroBulk is a delivery mode that gives us the continuity to be able to grow with customers as they move to larger and larger volumes. Often, a customer starts with high-pressure cylinders and grows to using one or two liquid dewars a month. Our gas specialists can evaluate customers’ operations and then design a delivery system that will help reduce their total costs for gas delivery. We plan to use MicroBulk as a proactive weapon to take customers away from competitors who don’t have this flexibility in delivery.”
