The shipbuilding industry faces fierce cost competition. Many manufacturers are looking at emerging countries, making it all increasingly important to have a gases partner with global delivery capabilities.
At the same time, productivity and quality continue to be important success factors in shipbuilding. For example, innovative gas-assisted welding technology can improve quality and save significant time and cost by reducing the effects of welding distortion.
