MATGAS, Air Products' leading R&D centre worldwide
The multinational American company Air Products will raise the level of MATGAS, the company's research and development laboratory located on the UAB campus via its Spanish subsidiary Carburo Metálicos, to include the direction of research projects globally and turn it into a reference centre. This laboratory will be the sixth of its type that the company sets up in the world.

To boost the centre's activities, the company plans on investing an average of five million Euros per year.  MATGAS will lead the global research into the application of gasses in the agro-food sector, the treatment of waters and the study of the full CO2 cycle, from capture to treatment and new uses.

MATGAS employs 35 researchers and has already contracted five new people this year. MATGAS was created in 2001 as the result of the strategic alliance between Air Products, Carburos Metálicos, the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the UAB the Barcelona Synchrotron Park collaborates with.
