Gas Disposal Services

We will solve your disposal problem

Inflammable, corrosive and toxic gases are required almost everywhere in the electronics industry. They are stored safely in regulation cylinders which are then returned after use, along with their remaining contents. But what do you do if the continers are damaged, no longer fulfil ADR requirements, or if the supplier does not take them back? Linde Nippon Sanso takes over their transport and processes the cylinders and contents safely, efficiently and in accordance with the law.
