Our stable foundation allows us to remain competitive even in economically challenging times. We have a solid business model coupled with a global footprint and a strong market position – especially in emerging markets. In addition, we benefit from the wide-ranging synergies between our Engineering and Gases Divisions and are ideally equipped to capitalise on the global megatrends in healthcare and energy.

Step by step, we are also turning Linde into a high performance organisation (HPO). This involves ongoing process optimisation and lasting efficiency gains within the company and will further strengthen our ability to weather stormy times.

In short, everything is in place to keep us on track as we move forward.
