The Linde fluorine on-site supply business
In June of this year with an investment of 4 billion won, Linde established a new manufacturing facility to produce on-site fluorine system equipment in Inju City, Korea. The Linde on-site fluorine supply business began when it acquired the British company Fluorogas in 2001. This company had developed the technology for on-site generation of fluorine for use within the electronics industry. Up to now Linde has supplied over 30 systems worldwide.

Within Linde the Fluorine business is well aligned with 2 of their identified mega trends – clean energy and growth markets in Greater China and South and East Asia.
We interviewed Carl Jackson, head of the Linde Fluorine Business to obtain an outline of the system and the business model for it. (See The Gas Review No. 347)
