Linde plc (Guildford, U.K.) announced that it has increased the capacity of its production facility in Mims, Florida, in response to growing demand for industrial gases in the region.
Linde has expanded production capacity at Mims by 50%, following a similar project that doubled output. Linde’s latest investment will help meet demand for oxygen, nitrogen and argon from customers across the healthcare, manufacturing, food processing and water treatment sectors in Florida. The additional capacity will also supply Linde’s aerospace customers, including a major space launch company, as previously announced.
In addition to expanding capacity, the Mims facility joined Florida Power & Light’s SolarTogether program in 2023, reducing the facility’s Scope 2 greenhouse gas emissions by 15%.
“We have continued to invest in our regional network density as demand for industrial gases has increased, driven in part by the burgeoning space launch sector and supported by a strong regional economy,” said Todd Lawson, Vice President East Region, Linde. “Linde has an excellent track record of safely and reliably supplying its customers. We are also proud to be able to produce industrial gases with a lower carbon intensity and contribute to our absolute GHG reduction goal.”
