Its extensive gas portfolio includes dissolved acetylene, which is vital for applications like welding, cutting, heating, demolding glass and copper wire, pharmaceutical synthesis, and as a carbon raw material. The company also supplies specialized laser and mixed gases, indispensable for advanced processes such as laser processing, precision welding, sterilization, biotechnology, and food product applications. Additionally, Koatsu Gas Kogyo provides separated gases crucial for analytical instruments used in measuring air pollutants, automobile exhaust, and flue gas concentrations, as well as for calibrating gas detectors. Fuel sources like LP gas and liquefied natural gas (LNG) are offered for heating and cutting.
