Buzwair Gases offers different MAP Gas Mixtures which are used in food preservation technique to extend the shelf life of food by modifying the composition of the internal atmosphere of a package.

The advantages of using MAP Gas includes Increase the shelf life of perishable food, Preserves the taste, vitamin and fat content, Preservation of the natural color and odor and Usage of preservatives is reduced, if not eliminated

Chemical and Physical properties :

Colorless, Odorless and Non-Flammable

Source of the Gas :

The gas mixture is composed of three or two main natural gases depending on applications requirements

Uses of Gases by Industry :

• Gas Mixture of Nitrogen 70%, Carbon dioxide 30% is used for preservation of Dry Food, Bread and Pastries.
• Gas Mixture of Oxygen 6%, Carbon dioxide 14%, Nitrogen balance is used for preservation of Salads, Fish and Poultry.
• Gas mixture of Oxygen 2-4% Nitrogen balance is used for preservation of Fresh Fruits, Fresh Vegetables and Oily / Fatty Food.
• Gas Mixture of CO2 30%, Oxygen Balance is used for preservation of Red Meat.

Our Options to Supply :

• Single cylinders ranging from 5 liters – 50 liters water capacity with standard valve connections.
• Cylinders quads/racks from 4 cylinders combinations up to 64 cylinders interconnected with a manifold system.

Gas Name : Inergen

Inergen is a mixture of three gases, typical composition of this mixture is 52% Nitrogen, 40% Argon and 8% Carbon Dioxide. Inergen consists of two atmospheric gases thus it has neither harm the environment nor to human.

Buzwair Gases has the capability to refill and certify the Inergen cylinders up to 300 bar pressure, using our gravimetric filling procedure, Buzwair accredited laboratory can certify up to 5% accuracy.

When the Inergen gas is discharged in a room it should modify the air composition to the level which extinguishes fire by lowering the oxygen content below the level that supports combustion. At the same time the presence of CO2 in the correct concentration will increase a person’s respiration rate in a reduced Oxygen atmosphere, the CO2 will increase human body ability to absorb Oxygen.

Chemical and Physical properties :

Vapor density: 1.18 (Air = 1), approximate molecular weight: 34, Colorless, Odorless, Non-Flammable

Source of the Gas :

The gas is consisting of a mixture of three gases (Nitrogen, Argon and Carbon Dioxide)

Uses of Gases by Industry :

• Inergen is one of the Fire Extinguishing agent utilizing the inerting capabilities of this mix
• Inergen is used to supply the fire suppression system for class A, B, and C fires.

Our Options to Supply :

• Buzwair Gases has ability to refill customer owned cylinders which will complies with international cylinders manufacturing standard, our experienced filling team are well trained to handle the different types of Inergen cylinders valves.
• We are Capable of refilling the cylinders from different sizes up to required filling pressure 150, 200, and 300 bar.
