Liquid & Compressed Nitrogen Gas Supplier for Industrial Use

Bulk & Cylinder Supply of High-Purity Nitrogen

Nitrogen is a colourless, odourless, and inert gas that makes up approximately 78% of the Earth's atmosphere. It is commonly referred to as an "inert gas" due to its low reactivity under normal conditions.

Nitrogen is widely used across various industries due to its inert properties. In the food industry, it is used for packaging and preservation, helping to extend the shelf life of perishable items by reducing oxidation. It is also used in cryogenic freezing for seafood, dairy, and meat products, maintaining their texture and freshness. The pharmaceutical sector relies on nitrogen for the production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) and cryopreservation of biological materials like stem cells, sperm, and eggs. The electronics industry benefits from nitrogen's non-reactive properties in soldering processes, preventing oxidation and ensuring high-quality circuit board production.

In the chemical industry, nitrogen is essential for producing fertilisers, nitric acid, dyes, and explosives. The oil and gas industry uses nitrogen for pipeline purging, blanketing, and enhanced oil recovery. In metal fabrication, nitrogen is used in annealing, heat treatment, and as a shielding gas in welding processes. The aerospace sector relies on nitrogen for rocket propulsion and space applications, while the automotive industry uses it in manufacturing processes and tyre inflation.

Although nitrogen itself is non-toxic, it can pose serious safety risks if handled improperly. In confined spaces, nitrogen can displace oxygen, creating a suffocation hazard. Proper ventilation, oxygen monitors, and safety training are crucial to prevent asphyxiation. Liquid nitrogen, which is extremely cold at -196°C, can cause severe frostbite or burns upon contact. Handling precautions include wearing cryogenic gloves, and face shields, and using insulated containers.
