PROFILE |
 |
At Praxair, doing business is always a gas. The company produces and sells gases (oxygen, nitrogen, argon, and others) for the metal-fabrication, chemicals, refining, food and beverage, semiconductor, and health care industries. Depending on a client company's gas needs, Praxair can build an on-site gas plant or provide gases by the cylinder. Industrial gases account for about 85% of sales. The company's surface technologies unit supplies high-temperature and corrosion-resistant metallic, ceramic, and powder coatings mainly to the aircraft, plastics, and primary metals industries. Praxair's surface technologies segment also provides aircraft engine and airframe component overhaul services.
