Executive Summary
The Industrial Gas (IG) industry has seen sea changes in past 100 years due to application of
industrial gases in virtually all the industries. The growth is backed by rapid industrialization in
developing economies particularly in manufacturing, electronics and healthcare segments. This
has led to subsequent increase in demands for mixes of gases (including the exotics), pure
medical gases, as well as new applications of traditional gases like oxygen, nitrogen, carbon
dioxide.
Increasing application of industrial and specialty gases in food industry, healthcare and
electronics industry is driving the market in recent years. Growing concern for environmental
protection and clean energy has also led to rise in consumption of these industrial gases.
Major companies operating in industrial gas business like Air Liquid, Air Products, Linde and
Praxair are expanding their reach in various geographies to get a share of the growing
markets.
