Years of Safety
The invisible industry that powers every corner of modern life.

The Compressed Gas Association (CGA) is the recognized authority on safety standards for gases and equipment that fuel modern life. Our 165+ member companies span the globe, from multinational corporations to family-owned businesses, representing every facet of the industry: manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, transporters, and equipment producers.
Though often unseen, compressed gases power industries that drive 24% of the U.S. GDP, support 34,000 American jobs, and contribute over $10 billion annually to the economy. Every job in our sector creates more than five additional jobs across the broader economy.
Serving our Stakeholders Across the Globe
