Gas supplier and manufacturer Air Products South Africa and its subsidiary Weldamax have strengthened their gas and welding portfolio through the acquisition of a controlling interest in EWN&S.

EWN&S and Weldamax were formerly independent distributors of Air Products’ industrial gases, as well as suppliers of a comprehensive range of welding equipment and consumables.

Weldamax was acquired by Air Products in 2022 and this latest acquisition of EWN&S is expected to significantly expand Air Products’ position in the synergistic gas and welding market.

Weldamax currently trades as Unique Welding through its Boksburg, Gauteng, head office and has a countrywide network of 13 sales outlets.

EWN&S brings an additional four sales outlets to the group in addition to market and product knowledge, Air Products says.

“We are extremely pleased to have concluded this acquisition as it strengthens our capabilities in several strategic and complementary locations. It will also provide the opportunity for supply chain synergies and further the growth of Weldamax’s extremely successful Thermamax range of equipment.

“EWN&S will have access to new products through Weldamax, as well as its extensive equipment after-sales service and support capabilities,” says Air Products MD Rob Richardson
