Barely months after gasworld announced a growth in uptake for Linde’s on-site fluorine in Asia, the firm has announced a substantial investment in South Korea to meet the continuing demand for on-site fluorine.
Just today, news reached gasworld from Seoul, South Korea, that the Linde Gases Division is to open its new manufacturing facility to produce next generation on-site fluorine system equipment in Inju City, South Korea.
According to Carl Jackson, Head of Fluorine Business for the Linde Gases Division, “This €2.5 million investment in the new state-of-the-art fluorine systems facility is essential to support the continuous growth of our Asian customer base.

The addition is adjacent to the existing Linde Fluroine Centre of Excellence.
