For many small to medium enterprises, nitrogen is an essential part of daily operations. Craft breweries use it for packaging and purging, small wineries use it for blanketing, laboratories rely on it for analytical processes, and food manufacturers depend on it for product quality and shelf life. Most SMEs begin with cylinder deliveries because the upfront investment is low and supply appears straightforward. However, over time, nitrogen supply can become a significant recurring expense.

Australia’s industrial landscape is shifting toward advanced manufacturing, battery processing, and high-tech production. This shift is being strongly supported by federal strategy and investment, with the Australian Government committing $22.7 billion to supporting advanced manufacturing and other high-tech industries over the next decade

Australian manufacturers are under increasing pressure to improve environmental performance, reduce carbon output, and demonstrate progress toward net-zero targets. Nitrogen plays a critical role in many industrial processes, including packaging, food production, metal fabrication, and electronics manufacturing. Traditionally, nitrogen has been supplied through delivered cylinders or bulk liquid, both of which contribute to emissions through transport, handling, and energy-intensive filling processes.

With rising transport and energy costs, relying on bottled or liquid nitrogen is becoming less viable for many wineries. More than ever, producers are seeking greater control over their nitrogen supply—both financially and operationally.

Many laboratories across Australia are re-evaluating their gas supply methods. Relying on bottled gas can present ongoing challenges including delivery delays, rising rental and transport costs, and the hassle of managing cylinder changeovers and storage. These operational drawbacks are driving a growing number of labs to explore on-site nitrogen and oxygen generation as a more reliable, cost-effective and future-ready solution.
