Industrial gases can be supplied using a range of different options including cylinders that can operate at very high pressures to storage vessels which hold liquefied gases at cryogenic temperatures.
Pressure, volume and flow rate are all key factors which must be considered when determining the most appropriate and cost effective supply mode for you.
In cylinder form, BOC supplies atmospheric gases such as oxygen, argon and nitrogen; fuel gases including dissolved acetylene and propane; and other gases such as hydrogen, helium and carbon dioxide. Cylinders are the ideal means of supply for smaller volumes of gas, offering flexibility of demand.
Alternatively, many gases, liquefied at low temperature can be supplied either in
small cryogenic vessels or in large storage vessels capable of holding ten’s of
thousands of litres of liquefied gas.
On-site supply systems are available and are built around standardised components to
ensure maximum cost efficiencies. Solutions are available for the production of
nitrogen, oxygen and hydrogen.
For customers requiring even larger quantities of industrial gases, we offer
customised on-site solutions. We have developed a strong on-site product portfolio
to deliver both atmospheric and chemical gases in the quantities and qualities
demanded.

Cylinders
Packs
Our standard packs contain either 4, 9 or 15 G size cylinders with a single
outlet, housed in a robust steel frame. Most of our range can be supplied in
packs.
VIPRs
An inbuilt Variable Integrated Pressure Regulator (VIPR) cylinder
eliminates hassle of acquiring, fitting and maintaining a separate
regulator, and the higher-pressure cylinder provides improved efficiency
with greater safety and convenience. Click here for more information our
VIPR cylinder.
GENIE®
Our GENIE® cylinder range addresses today's need for smarter, cleaner and
user-friendly gas packaging. With a pressure of 300bar, the GENIE ® is
available in nitrogen (10 and 20 litre capacity) and argon (20 litre
capacity only). Click here for more information on our GENIE® cylinders.
Bulk and on-site
Vessels
BOC offers an range of vessels in varying sizes and capacities to suit your
requirements.
CRYOSPEED® and
Mix on-site
CRYOSPEED® offers seamless delivery via a compact tanker vehicle which is
small enough to accommodate most sites. Our operators will deliver your
product without assistance, and have the experience and flexibility to
provide true security of supply. Watch our video on our CRYOSPEED® offer
here
Mix on site is used in conjunction with our CRYOSPEED® offer and allows you
to blend customised welding gas mixtures directly to your site. For more
information on Mix Onsite, watch our Youtube video.
ISOs & PCCs
Cryogenic ISO tanks can supply liquid oxygen, argon, nitrogen and carbon
dioxide. ISO tanks allow for the easy distribution of large volumes of
cryogenic liquids. They are ideal for applications that require temporary
usage, are geographically isolated or for pilot-plant trials.
Portable Cryogenic Containers (PCCs) are portable vacuum and super insulated
containers for the transport and storage of cryogenic liquids, and for the
dispensing of their contents in either liquid or gaseous form. For more
information on transportable cryogenic options, click here.
GASMATIC®
GASMATIC® makes it easier to meet large liquid CO2 demand whilst improving
efficiency and safety in the workplace. Flexible delivery options are
offered to cater for different customers’ needs. GASMATIC® offers a
selection of vessel sizes to cater for different demands, and avoids the
hassle of changing over cylinders or running out of gas – 90kg, 180kg,
200kg, 270kg and 350kg. Click here for more information.
