At each of our Tennessee locations, we offer a range of gases:
Used for carbonating drinks, preserving foods and for Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP), carbon dioxide requires a specific purity for food and beverage use. Our beverage CO2 delivery in Tennessee includes documentation about purity. This allows you to stay compliant with regulations established by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and other regulatory bodies.
Nitrogen is commonly used for chilling, freezing and packaging foods to maintain freshness. Beverage nitrogen in Tennessee is used to maintain headspace pressure in some drinks and to support secure packaging and filling of beverage containers. It can create a creamy texture or foam for nitro coffees, beers and other beverages. Volunteer Welding also delivers liquid nitrogen, which can be used to freeze and store food for transit.
Dry ice is the solid form of carbon dioxide, and many food companies use it to store food items for display. Food industry experts also sometimes use dry ice for sanitation or to create visual effects for special occasions.
Volunteer Welding also offers a range of gas mixtures for your specialty dishes, innovative food products and hospitality experiences. A specialty gases laboratory in Volunteer Welding’s Nashville location has experts who can help you achieve specific products, specialty packaging and more through customized gas blends.
Through our locations and our partnership with Meritus Gas Partners, we also offer beverage systems and winemaking equipment. Licensed technicians and an in-house certified gas equipment repair facility can provide repairs and maintenance services as well as ongoing support.
