Global lead in Air Liquide's expansion is spearheaded by North America

Air Liquide, a leading global player in gases, has reported impressive growth in its first half of 2025 results, particularly in the North American region. The company's solid performance was observed across the region, with sales in the Americas increasing by 3% on a comparable basis.

This growth was supported by a series of large industrial gas projects in the US, which benefited from a significant ramp-up in air gases. One such project is Air Liquide's investment of up to $200 million in Louisiana. This investment is aimed at modernizing an air separation unit (ASU) and expanding the pipeline network to supply Dow Chemical Company's St Charles Operations site with nitrogen and oxygen.

CEO Francois Jackow expressed his optimism about the group's future, stating that the aim is to carry this momentum through the rest of the year. He also highlighted that Air Liquide's portfolio includes project development, electronics, and the energy transition.

The group's achievements in North America are a testament to its diverse portfolio and strategic investments. For those interested in staying updated on such developments, subscribing to gasworld provides access to in-depth content every month.
