EIGL manufactures a wide variety of industrial gases, including oxygen, nitrogen, argon, helium, hydrogen, carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide and acetylene, through which it services a diverse set of industries, with its products finding use in ship building, glass manufacturing, steel manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, welding, fabrication, among others, rendering their consistent supply critical to different industries. It has been one of the key suppliers to India’s space and defence program. EIGL also offers synthetic air, which is a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen, produced by controlled, homogenized mixing and is used as zero gas in the running and calibration of test equipment for environmental monitoring, owing to its limited impurities.


 

EIGL is one of the largest manufacturers of industrial gases in East India and South India, and the market leader in the states of West Bengal, Andhra Pradesh, and Telangana, each in terms of installed manufacturing capacity as of March 31, 2024. It was the first company to set up a hydrogen electrolyzer in Eastern India. As of March 31, 2024, EIGL had one of the highest number of customers out of any gas company in India, indicating a highly diversified customer base with limited concentration risk.

EIGL is one of the few companies to have dedicated plants for each type of gas delivery system - pipeline, merchant liquid and cylinder filling. It has a robust distribution network, with the third highest number of transport tankers, cylinders, and customer installations in India. In terms of bulk distribution capability, EIGL’s fleet of cryogenic transport tankers in circulation is one of the largest in India as of March 31, 2024.


During the COVID-19 pandemic, Ellenbarrie’s leadership was particularly evident. The company played a critical role in addressing the urgent demand for medical oxygen, with their tankers being routinely airlifted by the Indian Air Force from Hyderabad to Odisha. This rapid response not only highlighted Ellenbarri’'s operational agility but also its dedication to public welfare during a national crisis. By consistently prioritizing innovation, operational excellence, and customer-centric solutions, Ellenbarrie Industrial Gases Ltd. continues to lead and shape the industrial gas landscape in India.
