Linde is further expanding its gas business in Malaysia
Until now, Linde's gas activities in Malaysia and Singapore have been related mainly to oxygen, argon, acetylene and special gases, as well as to applications technology for cutting and welding in the metal processing sector. The company has been selling gases across the country via its own branch and distribution network since 1994, and will employ more than 150 people after the takeover. The takeover of Hydrogas Malaysia is part of Linde's drive to expand its existing gas offering in the fast-growing food market segment, and will make the company the third-largest gas provider in Malaysia.
