Segments

The company operates in four business segments: Merchant Gases; Tonnage Gases; Electronics and Performance Materials; and Equipment and Energy.

Merchant Gases Segment

The Merchant Gases segment sells atmospheric gases, such as oxygen, nitrogen, and argon (primarily recovered by the cryogenic distillation of air); process gases, such as hydrogen and helium (purchased or refined from crude helium); and medical and specialty gases, along with certain services and equipment, worldwide to customers in various industries, including those in metals, glass, chemical processing, food processing, healthcare, steel, general manufacturing, and petroleum and natural gas industries. Merchant Gases includes the following types of products:

Liquid bulk—Product is delivered in bulk (in liquid or gaseous form) by tanker or tube trailer and stored, usually in its liquid state, in equipment designed and installed by the company at the customer’s site for vaporizing into a gaseous state as needed. Liquid bulk sales are governed by three- to five-year contracts.

Packaged gases—The company operates packaged gas businesses in Europe, Asia, and Brazil. In the United States, the company’s packaged gas business sells products for the electronics and magnetic resonance imaging (principally helium) industries.

Small on-site plants—Customers receive product through small on-sites (cryogenic or noncryogenic generators) either by a sale of gas contract or the sale of the equipment to the customer.

Healthcare products—Customers receive respiratory therapies, home medical equipment, and infusion services. These products and services are provided to patients in their homes, primarily in Europe. The company has market positions in Spain, Portugal, and the United Kingdom, and in Mexico through its equity affiliate.
