Airgas Inc. (ARG) is partnering with MacEwen Petroleum Inc., Maxville, Ontario, to distribute AiRx Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) in Canada. MacEwen is a leading supplier of petroleum products to customers ranging from retail to wholesale to commercial and residential markets. MacEwen is also a leading convenience store operator with its C-store Brand.

Airgas AiRx DEF is used in diesel engines and helps reduce harmful diesel exhaust pollutants with the help of Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology. The product has a certification from the American Petroleum Institute (API) and complies with EPA clean air regulations.

Airgas is a reliable supplier and has an immense distribution network, which has influenced MacEwen to join hands with Airgas. Besides, MacEwen has an amazing track record as a supplier and is confident that the alliance of the two can successfully serve the Canadian markets. Airgas is committed to grow its business across the continent and views this partnership as a stepping stone.

Airgas has recently realigned its operations dividing it into four divisions:  viz, West, North, South and Central to reap the benefits from its new customized SAP information platform. Airgas has also made two major acquisitions including Waterford, Connecticut-based ABCO Gases, Welding and Industrial Supply Company Inc.

ABCO and Bloomington, Indiana-based Pain Enterprises Inc. The merits of these strategic actions are likely to be reflected in the next quarterly results of the company. Currently, the company retains a Zacks #2 Rank, which translates into a short-term (1 to 3 months) Buy rating.

Based in Randor, Pennsylvania, Airgas, through its subsidiaries, distributes industrial, medical, and specialty gases, as well as hard goods in the United States. Airgas competes with Air Products (APD) and L'Air Liquide SA (AIQUY).
