林德集团

What 林德集团 does

Linde (China) Investment Co., Ltd. operates Linde plc's industrial-gases and on-site engineering business in Greater China, with continuous presence in the country since 1987 and a regional headquarters in Pudong, Shanghai. The China entity is the operational arm through which Linde plc (NYSE: LIN; FWB: LIN) executes in the domestic market, alongside joint ventures with Sinopec (Ningbo Zhenhai), Shanghai Huayi (Guangxi Qinzhou), and wholly-owned operating subsidiaries such as Linde Gas (Taixing), Linde Shengshi Gas (Nanjing), and the 2024-acquired Yantai Feiyuan Special Gases.

The business delivers industrial, specialty, and medical gases — nitrogen, oxygen, argon, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, and high-purity/mixed gases — through five supply modes: packaged cylinders, horizontal tanks, bulk liquid tanker, dedicated pipelines, and build-own-operate (BOO) on-site production. On the technology side, Linde leverages a 100+ year engineering heritage and over 356 ASU patents, with proprietary platforms including REBOX full-oxygen combustion, ALUMELT flameless pure-oxygen combustion, VPSA (including the world's first magnetic-levitation dual-bed VPSA), ECOVAR on-site systems, COJET, OXYGON, OPTIMELT TCR, HiQ specialty gases, ADDvance additive-manufacturing solutions, and LINSPRAY thermal-spray technology. In clean energy, the entity holds the largest global liquid-hydrogen capacity, 200+ hydrogen stations worldwide (80+ hydrogen electrolysis plants), and three CCUS capture strategies reaching up to 95% CO₂ recovery.

Revenue mechanics combine long-dated subscription-style BOO contracts (multi-decade supply with anchor industrial customers in petrochemicals, steel, aluminum, glass, and chemicals) with project-based ASU sales/retrofits, packaged-gas volume through Linde Gas Mall and WeChat service channels, digital/managed services (DigitIGAS, ACCURA), and engineering services. Customer concentration is high on the contract side — including Wanhua Chemical, Baowu/Zhongnan Steel, CNOOC Shell, Shanghai Huayi, Angang, Dongfang Special Steel, ExxonMobil Huizhou, Schott Glass, and Jinsheng Technology — but offset by very long contract tenors (15–25+ years) and a 200+ industry packaged-gas footprint. Go-to-market combines enterprise field sales for BOO contracts, event-driven demand generation (CIIE, CIEF, China Aluminum Industry Exhibition), and a digital self-service channel for SMB customers.
