Our team of engineers, chemists, and technical experts ensure that each gas cylinder coming from our FDA-compliant production facilities is defined, controlled, and mixed to the highest standards, allowing it to meet its intended purpose.

Tailored to Your Requirements  

Industries require custom gas blends for a variety of applications. For them, a reliable source of consistent-quality and precise gas blends is a non-negotiable. Gas supplies that don’t meet their exact specifications have serious ramifications, including the loss of revenue and even lives.

Here are some examples where meticulously combined gases are an absolute necessity:

Medical Care

Medical and dental facilities need reliable gas blends that meet stringent requirements. nexAir has proven itself a dependable supplier of:

• Oxygen and nitrous oxide for sedation and anesthetics
• Oxygen and nitrogen for respiratory therapy
• Carbon dioxide and helium for breathing stimulation

These are only some examples of our medical-grade mixtures.

Welding 

The quality of the weld, safety of the welding professional, and integrity of the finished product greatly rely on the quality of the gas blend used. Various gas blends are employed in various welding techniques and materials. Our most popular welding gas mixtures include our argon and carbon dioxide mix as well as oxygen and acetylene which are both used for welding steel. 

Different production processes have unique requirements based on the product being made. Whether it’s an automotive part, a laboratory instrument, an electronic part, or a prefabricated construction material, reliable gas blends must fit their intended purpose to facilitate production.

Glass Making

nexAir is also helping the glass industry meet the growing demand for its products while empowering production facilities to reduce carbon emissions and energy consumption. These are achieved through nexAir’s alternative custom blends which are less emission-intensive. Examples include hydrogen-methane, oxy-fuel, and blue hydrogen.  

Modified Atmosphere Packaging

Gas blends are widely used in the food and beverage industry as an element in modified atmosphere packaging (MAP). Commonly used gases include carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen, and traces of carbon monoxide, argon, and helium. They prevent oxidation, inhibit microbial growth, and promote shelf life. MAP is commonly used in meat products, fresh fruits, vegetables, dried food, baked products, dairy food products, etc.
