Linde Canada to showcase welding equipment/gases that increase quality and productivity at Ideal Supply Trade Show in Stratford, Ontario

STRATFORD, Ontario, May 11, 2015 /CNW/ -- Metal fabricators attending this year's Ideal Supply Trade Show in Stratford, Ontario Canada, are invited to visit the Linde Canada booth to meet with Linde experts to discuss how they can increase welding quality and productivity, as well as improved safety. Linde will be demonstrating the company's extensive line of shielding gases, hard goods, machines and safety products.

Linde Canada is an affiliate of Linde North America, and a member of The Linde Group, a world-leading gases and engineering company.

The two-day trade show is being held on Wednesday and Thursday, May 13-14, 2015, from 3:00pm to 9:00pm at the Stratford Rotary Complex, 353 McCarthy Rd, in Stratford. Linde welding experts will be showcasing the Linde-branded MIG wire, proprietary flux cored and metal-core wires and Linde-branded abrasives. They will also be highlighting MISON® shielding gases which reduce the amount of harmful ozone formed during the welding process, while improving the stability of the arc, and lowering clean up time.

Linde's specialists will be available to respond to questions relating to hand-held oxy-fuel and plasma cutting equipment, as well as a selection of MIG and TIG welders. Visitors to the booth will have an opportunity to learn about ODOROX® odorized oxygen for cutting applications, which has a very distinct smell to help mitigate the danger of oxygen leaks.

Also on display will be a wide range of safety products, including personal protective equipment, protective eyewear, and high visibility clothing.

Don Speight, area general manager-Central Canada, said "We believe the Linde product offerings related to welding and cutting, combined with our engineers' extensive applications experience in the fabrication industry, is second to none. Visitors to our booth will have the opportunity to meet with our specialists and leave with solutions to their specific issues."
