Company snapshot — Air Liquide SA

AI.PA in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
Air Liquide supplies industrial and specialty gases and related services worldwide, split between a Gas & Services arm and an Engineering & Construction arm. The Gas & Services side sells bulk gases such as oxygen, nitrogen, argon and hydrogen to large industry, runs cogeneration plants supplying steam and power to metals and chemicals sites, and sells smaller gas volumes and equipment to food, pharmaceutical and technology customers. It also runs a healthcare business supplying medical gases and home care, and an electronics business supplying carrier gases and specialty materials to semiconductor, flat-panel and photovoltaic makers. Engineering & Construction designs and builds gas-production plants for outside customers. It was founded in 1902 and is headquartered in Paris.
Where it sits in the stack
In our index, Air Liquide sits in Layer 6, Manufacturing Support, within the Gases, Chemicals & Consumables sleeve — the diary's term for specialty gases, slurries and photochemicals whose revenue tracks wafer starts rather than tool capex. Fabs are customers of its electronics gas business, so its volumes are a constraint on how much output a semiconductor plant can actually run.
Who it is priced against
The diary groups it with Linde, Qnity Electronics and Ajinomoto under the same Gases, Chemicals & Consumables reasoning; the market also names Air Products and Chemicals as a comparable industrial-gas supplier.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
It holds a seat in our Rubin Build-Out 100 index and carries a Closelooknet score, with momentum the strongest module and valuation the weakest; the diary has not yet logged a quote or edition mention for the name.
What the diary watches
Whether demand from its electronics gas business tracks new fab construction closely enough to separate it from the rest of its industrial-gas book.

Air Liquide SA (AI.PA) trades on the PA exchange in France, classified under Basic Materials, and sits in Layer 6 of the build-out stack. Constituent of Rubin Build-Out 100.
