supply options
air products can help you determine the most economical supply option for your particular application and geographic location. industrial gases are typically provided in gaseous and liquid form through a variety of supply systems.
cylinders & hard goods
the traditional solution for low-volume gas supply. cylinders can be supplied in a full range of sizes, pressures and gas purities for a range of gases and gas mixtures. search our extensive network of distributors in the u.s. and parts of canada for your cylinder and hard goods supply needs.
bulk supply
delivered by truck and stored on your site either as a liquid in cryogenic tanks or as a gas in high-pressure tubes based on your volume, desired pressure, purity level, flow rate, and operating pattern.
cryoease® microbulk solutions
a convenient and cost-effective solution for larger operations. cryoease® tanks are available in a range of sizes. the cryoease® service simplifies your gas supply by eliminating the need to handle cylinders, stock taking and ordering.
sds library
our safety data sheet (sds) library allows you to search and find the sds you need--in the language you select.
