History
Airgas was founded in 1982 with the acquisition of a local distributor, Connecticut Oxygen. The company has grown organically and through more than 500 acquisitions to become the largest U.S. distribution network in the packaged gas industry. Airgas was acquired by Air Liquide in 2016. Together, the combined company became a world leader in gas and services for Industry and Health.
