“How can I optimize my helium usage?”
Helium gas plays a vital role in the production of rocket components and supporting launch activities. Defense, nuclear, and aerospace manufacturers use helium for detecting leaks in critical equipment such as rocket engines, and for purging and propellant transfer. Many face the challenge to increase quality while reducing costs. Air Products has been a leading supplier of helium to the space industry since its inception delivering innovative approaches such as gas supply management systems which can reduce the cost of gas ownership and improve overall processes. Our proprietary liquid helium pumping technology allows these industries to pressurize large on-site gaseous storage vessels at lower costs, with less energy, and at faster rates.Air Products has a global supply network, breadth of resources, world class service, expert technical assistance, commitment to quality, and an industry-recognized safety record. We understand your need for a secure, reliable supply, coupled with attention to detail and supported by service—throughout the world. Let us help make your business take off.

Industrial gas audits
For decades, Air Products has safely and reliably produced and delivered industrial gas worldwide. By calling on Air Products to perform an audit at your facility, you take advantage of the knowledge, experience and skills we have accumulated while maintaining thousands of industrial gas systems around the world. Audits can be as broad or as narrow as required by your facility, from comprehensive assessments of the entire gas supply system – storage tanks all the way through the piping to the individual use points – to reviews of gas flow control, metering, and blending equipment, or the actual furnaces and process equipment that use the gas.

Gases
Helium
An inert gas for cryogenic, heat transfer, shielding, leak detection, analytical and lifting applications
Hydrogen
Valued for its reactive and protective properties, and used by many industries such as electronics, foods, glass, chemicals, refining and more can benefit from its unique properties to improve quality, optimize performance and reduce costs.
Nitrogen
Useful as a gas, for its inert properties, and as a liquid for cooling and freezing. Virtually any industry can benefit from its unique properties to improve yields, optimize performance and make operations safer.
Oxygen
In addition to its use as a respiratory gas for healthcare applications, its strong oxidizing properties benefit many industries by improving yields, optimizing performance, lowering costs and reducing carbon footprint compared to other fuels.
