This is Linde India’s second merchant plant in northern India, the other one being at Selaqui, Uttarakhand. The new ASU more than doubles Linde India’s total merchant capacity in the region.

The new plant at Ludhiana will enable Linde India to meet the growing demand for medical oxygen, industrial oxygen, nitrogen and argon from a wide range of customers across healthcare, semiconductor, steel, metals, pharmaceutical, paper, automotive and manufacturing. The new ASU, located inside the Hi-Tech Cycle Valley Park at Dhanansu, will also serve other industries in the neighborhood through a gas pipeline network.

“Industrial gases play a vital role across almost every sector in India,” said Abhijit Banerjee, Managing Director, Linde India. “As India’s economy continues to expand and diversify, we are proud to support traditional end markets, such as metals, manufacturing and mining, along with new growth segments, such as electronics, space research, defense, healthcare and solar energy. Linde’s products, technology and people are helping to make our customers more productive and sustainable.”

”Linde India’s investment in Ludhiana aligns with our strategy to consolidate our network in high growth regions. Punjab is the epicenter for multiple sectors and this investment was well supported by the Government of Punjab through their “Invest Punjab” initiative. This plant is another step towards making the region self-reliant for industrial gases.”
