Air Products to supply industrial gases to Unipetrol
World-leading industrial gas company, Air Products, and Unipetrol RPA, part of the leading petrochemical and refining group – Unipetrol, have signed a new long-term agreement extending their successful relationship. The contract, which will run until 2027, sees Air Products continuing to supply industrial gases from its existing air separation unit (ASU) to meet Unipetrol’s needs.
The contract also includes the provision of operational and maintenance services on industrial gas production equipment in Litvinov. Located on Unipetrol’s manufacturing site, Air Products’ ASU will also continue to supply additional liquid capacity produced to meet the industrial gas needs of its other customers across the Czech Republic and Central Europe.
Unipetrol and Air Products have been collaborating for over 20 years and this brings many commercial advantages. Both companies continually optimize processes and drive performance based on existing and future needs. This mutually beneficial approach also creates value for customers in the Czech and broader Central European market.
“Air Products produces key raw materials that meet our direct needs in the area of Chempark Záluží. The company is a reliable supplier for Unipetrol and allows us to focus on key production activities in the areas of refinery and petrochemicals," says Åukasz Piotrowski, executive in Charge of Production at Unipetrol RPA.
“We greatly value our relationship with Unipetrol,” commented Piotr Wieczorek, Air Products’ vice president ‒ Central Europe. “We have been working together since 1994 and by taking a long-term view to our relationship, Air Products is able to meet their needs as an important customer, whilst also serving many others across the region; we’re pleased this will continue for a long time to come. The extension of our contract demonstrates the strategic and commercial value investing in reliable, mutually beneficial business relationships can bring.”
