Chart Industries' Operating Segments

Chart's Products Span the Entire Cryogenic Liquid and Gas Supply Chain
Chart is committed to being the preferred global supplier of engineered equipment required throughout the cryogenic liquid supply chain. This liquid supply chain spans all the major market steps and includes cryogenic liquid production, purification, distribution, storage and many end-user applications where cryogenic liquids are finally converted into the desired gases. Cryogenic liquid-gases include nitrogen, oxygen, argon, hydrogen, helium, carbon dioxide, natural gas and many other hydrocarbons. Temperatures for these liquids range from “cool” (carbon dioxide at -60°F) to the extreme cold of liquid helium (-452°F).

The Company's operations are organized within three segments: Biomedical, Distribution and Storage, and Energy and Chemicals.

Chart's Biomedical segment consists of various product lines built around the Company's core competencies in cryogenics but with a focus on the medical and biological end users of the liquids and gases instead of the large producers and distributors of cryogenic liquids. Chart's products in the Biomedical segment include the following:

Biomedical • Medical Products
• Biological Storage Systems
• Magnetic Resonance Imaging ("MRI") Cryostat Components
• Telemetry Products

The products supplied by the Distribution and Storage segment are driven primarily by the large and growing installed base of users of cryogenic liquids as well as new applications and distribution technologies for cryogenic liquids. Chart's products span the entire spectrum of the industrial gas market from small customers requiring cryogenic packaged gases to large users requiring custom engineered cryogenic storage systems and include the following:

Distribution and Storage • Cryogenic Bulk Storage Systems
• Cryogenic Packaged Gas Systems
• Cryogenic Systems and Components
• Beverage Liquid CO2 Systems
• Cryogenic Services

Chart's principal products within the Energy and Chemicals segment are focused on the process equipment, primarily heat exchangers, coldboxes and LNG fuel systems, used by the major natural gas, petrochemical processing and industrial gas companies in the production of their products.

Energy and Chemicals • Heat Exchangers
• Cold Boxes
• LNG Alternative Fuel Systems
