White Martins serves customers in the chemical, health care, primary metals, food and beverage, and healthcare industries, among others. The company also manufactures welding and cutting equipment, as well as equipment for the transportation and storage of industrial gases. White Martins was delisted from Brazilian exchanges when Praxair upped its ownership to nearly 99%. White Martins operates Praxair's other South American subsidiaries.
