02/07/2025
The new air separation facility, located at the Hiwassee River Industrial Park, will produce liquid oxygen, nitrogen and argon serving various industries in the Knoxville, Chattanooga and Nashville areas, as well as in northern Alabama and Georgia.
“East Tennessee’s I-75 corridor is experiencing incredible growth across multiple end markets. This investment will add to our already robust production and supply network, to meet the rapidly growing industrial gas needs of customers in the region,” said Todd Lawson, east region vice president, Linde, Inc.
Linde serves a variety of end markets such as chemicals & energy, food & beverage, electronics, healthcare, manufacturing, metals and mining. The company’s industrial gases and technologies are used in several applications including production of clean hydrogen and carbon capture systems critical to the energy transition, life-saving medical oxygen and high-purity & specialty gases for electronics.
“During the recruitment process, it’s important that our potential companies are not only the right fit for Tennessee but also for our communities. Linde is a company that has continued to place its trust in Charleston and Bradley County, which underscores this region’s leadership and diligent efforts to attract and land economic investment,” noted TNECD Commissioner Stuart C. McWhorter.
“The Chamber and business community would like to extend a warm welcome to Linde and the team members responsible for implementing this important project. As we learned in recent years, an accessible and localized supply chain is critical to keeping our region’s industries operating. We look forward to assisting the team as they settle into the community and for many years to come,” added Doug Berry, vice president of economic development, Cleveland-Bradley County Chamber of Commerce.
