Essential

Airgas is an essential business. Our products and services provide the fundamental and necessary building blocks for the U.S. economy and form the backbone of America’s infrastructure.

When a power plant or bridge goes up, construction workers put on personal protective safety equipment and weld with gases and hardgoods, as they work to improve our skylines and highways. Not only does Airgas supply these necessary products, we provide the expertise to use them.

Factory workers rely on our industrial gases to produce their goods. Food manufacturers use our carbon dioxide and nitrogen to process and protect their shipments. Oil refineries turn to Airgas experts to manage their gas cylinder inventory. Hospitals depend on our medical oxygen to help their patients breathe. And research laboratories use our specialty gases to further the cause of scientific development.

We don’t provide nice-to-have products. We provide necessary ones that companies of all types and sizes count on to do the vital work – the hard jobs, the dirty jobs, the important jobs that improve our world and our lives.
