Commenting on the new plant, David Chow, Praxair China president, said, $quot;We have quickly and successfully grown our business in southern China by delivering fully integrated products and services to our customers. The new plant broadens our already diversified customer base and positions us for even further growth in the region.$quot; LianZhong will produce 800,000 tons per year of stainless steel to meet the growing demands of the Chinese market.
Mr Chow continued, $quot;This is a testimony to the capabilities of Praxair and a practical demonstration of what we can achieve with the support of our customers and local authorities.$quot; The new Praxair plant, located in Guangzhou Economic and Technology Development Zone, will supply high volumes of high purity oxygen, nitrogen and argon to LianZhong via pipeline.
