With an initial investment of more than ten million euros, Group Gasmedi will install a plant of fractionation of gases from the air (oxygen, nitrogen and argon) as well as the necessary facilities for the bottling of them both for medicinal use and for industrial use. The installation will take place in the industrial estate "El Sabinar" (next to the N-II) and will feature an area of 16,000 square meters.
The unit will be able to produce annually, in liquid form, more than 16 million cubic meters of oxygen, nitrogen and argon. Filling facilities can deal with more than one million bottles annually and will allow the filling, with a pressure of up to 300 bars, the gases produced as well as any type of mixture and special gases.
The reasons which have led to the Gasmedi group to install the plant in this town are the absence of air fractionation plants dedicated to the supply of liquefied gas medicinal in the autonomous community of Aragon and the strategic location of the town that enjoys being in the Centre of the transport by road in the Northwest of Spain.
