Air Liquide announces new line of CALGAZ returnable cylinders in the U.S.

Air Liquide America Specialty Gases LLC (“Air Liquide”) has launched Calgaz Plus, a new line of easy-to-return cylinders in the U.S.

CALGAZ is Air Liquide’s brand of industry-leading calibration gas products and services for the safety detection market. The new CALGAZ Plus line of cylinders provides a safe, efficient and environmentally-friendly process for returning empty cylinders.

The CALGAZ Plus line includes four cylinder sizes: 60 liters, 116 liters, 625 liters and 850 liters. The CALGAZ Plus 60 and CALGAZ Plus 116 cylinders are nearly the same size as the existing CALGAZ 34 and CALGAZ 58 cylinders, but they hold almost twice the volume. This allows for fewer cylinder changeovers for auto-calibration stations and reduces the cost of instrument calibration.

CALGAZ Plus cylinders come with a high level of services, including e-shopping. The cylinders are shipped together with easy-to-store return cartons that are pre-addressed and postage-paid. All CALGAZ Plus cylinders are 100 percent aluminum and meet UN ISO 7866 specifications.

Jim English, vice president of Air Liquide’s CALGAZ division, commented: “CALGAZ Plus returnable cylinders are another example of the commitment CALGAZ employees make every day to deliver innovative calibration gas products and services of the highest-quality to our customers – safely and efficiently.”
