Messer Starts Operation of New Green CO2 Plant in Czechia

German family-owned industrial gases producer Messer has started operations at a new plant for the production of green carbon dioxide (CO2) at its Vrdy site in the Czech Republic.

According to Messer, this new facility enables it to increase the supply reliability of its customers, for example in the local food and beverage industry. This is particularly important during the summer months, when demand for carbon dioxide for soft drinks or for cooling technologies is especially high.

A local bioethanol producer supplies Messer with the CO2 as a raw gas. This supports Messer's ESG agenda, as bioethanol sources support the movement to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing dependence on fossil or chemical sources.

With this new plant, Messer said that it is further strengthening its independent local product supply. The industrial gases specialist now delivers the gas itself to its customers in various industries and does not have to purchase carbon dioxide for the Czech market or import it from the company’s sources abroad.
