America is investing in its infrastructure.
Non-residential construction is on the rise, and Airgas has
the gases, welding equipment, safety products, power tools,
and other supplies that construction customers need.
Building out from our core business, Airgas has expanded our
infrastructure to meet this growing construction demand. A national
sales team works with the largest engineering and construction
firms, while regional specialists work with local contractors
who are building high-rises, bridges, pipelines, and power plants.
We are adding new contractor-friendly stores stocked and staffed
with construction customers in mind. Hotshot delivery trucks
help serve construction crews on deadline. And Red-D-Arc Welderentals®,
an Airgas company, provides welding, positioning, and related
equipment, including products engineered and built for Extreme-Duty™
performance and reliability.
Construction accounts for 10 percent of total revenues today.
By building out our infrastructure with dedicated teams and
new construction stores, Airgas will be ready for contractors
of all sizes who will be participating in America’s building
boom. |
