About Us
Our Mission

American Industrial Gases has a long family history of serving loyal customers in every industry since the 1960’s. The Smith family has always been customer focused regardless of the size of the customer. We take care of our customers, it’s that simple! American Industrial Gases is Texas based; however, AIG has a national footprint. The principals of AIG sought to give customers of all sizes a “national purchasing deal” for those industrial, medical, retail/grocers, and cryogenic gas users who have many locations scattered across the U.S.A. While the packaged gases industry is not as fragmented as it was 45 years ago, our relationships are broad and deep so that no geography is left untouched by our award-winning services. We service our customers whether it is cryogenic liquids or cylinder gases. AIG is 100% American owned and operated unlike many providers today. Let American Industrial Gases provide what you have been looking for.
Our History

American Industrial Gases was created by Rob Smith as a second-generation owner of an industrial gases company. Rob is preparing the company for many customer focused years ahead and is training the younger family members now for when the day comes for them to lead. Rob has known the intricacies of packaged gases distribution and related products having been involved with his father’s business called Bob Smith Gas Products since the 1960’s. Rob’s father sold the company to a global major gas company in 1996 which provided a retirement for Bob Smith pictured next to his route truck in the 1950’s when he first began with a Houston Texas based company called Stoffel Distributing Company. Mr. Stoffel had three stores when he decided to sell his company to Bob Smith.
