Gases play a crucial role in the production of semiconductor components used in products like computers and mobile phones.

Gases are used at various stages of the production process, depending on the specific methods applied. Large volumes of inert gases are required, but many reactive gases are also essential. Gases play an important role in the manufacturing of fiberglass, solar cells, flat panel displays, and in nanotechnology. To ensure the safe and reliable operation of the final products, extremely high standards are set for gas purity and the quality of the supply systems.
