GAWDA Buyer’s Guide

Each year, GAWDA examines its member engagement strategy to ensure that our GAWDA members are getting the most value out of their membership. GAWDA, as a member organization, is only as strong as its base of members. Our member engagement strategy is designed to actively involve and connect with our members to enhance their participation, satisfaction, and loyalty.

Some of the key steps and components that we use when developing our member engagement strategy are: understanding our members, clear communication, value-driven benefits, personalization, continuous learning and professional development, engaging events, recognition and awards, volunteer opportunities, feedback and surveys, long-term engagement, and data analysis and tracking. 2023 was a record-year for GAWDA, culminating in our Annual Convention in Maui, Hawaii.

But we are not resting on our laurels. We have even more planned for 2024. We added a new Regional Event in the Southeast. We are bringing back our popu-

lar GAWDA Master’s Business Academy (MBA) program following rave reviews of the initial program, and late in 2023 we partnered with The Horton Group to launch the new and expanded GAWDA Ancillary Benefits Program.

Another one of our member benefits is the GAWDA Buyer’s Guide. What started as a solely print publication has expanded over the years to include the companion online Buyer’s Guide (buyersguide.gawdamedia.com) and now a Buyer’s Guide app (search GAWDA in the App or Google Play Store). The aim of the Buyer’s Guide is to facilitate GAWDA members doing business with other members. These guides work in tandem to serve as an industry resource of essential information about the leading manufacturers, suppliers, and service providers in the gases and welding industry.

This Buyers Guide aims to enhance communication among members, to make sure all members have the latest possible information and to provide you the utmost value for your membership.

The Buyer’s Guide is an excellent resource to enhance your business and im-

prove and facilitate your relationships throughout the year. It contains relevant contact information and product data for every GAWDA manufacturer, supplier and service provider. To make the directory as easy and convenient to use as possible, the information has been sorted by company name and product category.

We think you’ll immediately recognize the worth of this publication, just as all of us in GAWDA value the partnerships our independent distributor members have with their suppliers. We hope you enjoy it, and we look forward to building on the milestone year that we had in 2023 into an even better 2024.

MORE THAN 100 YEARS OF SERVICE

Arcos is celebrating its 105th anniversary in 2024! The company started in 1919 as the R.D. Thomas and Company. Until 1931, electrodes were imported from Arcos S.A. in Brussels, Belgium. In 1931, the first heavy coated hand-dipped electrodes for welding stainless and other specialty steels were manufactured in the U.S. In 1936, R.D. Thomas and Company merged with the world’s most advanced producer of coated electrodes, Arcos Belgium. Six years later, the company developed the first 307 stainless steel electrode to weld armor plates instead of the then scarce and expensive stainless 310. In the pinch of war time shortages, this was a real advantage, as the war created demand for repair and building new ships was so great for these electrodes, a new plant had to be acquired and tooled.

The company’s progressive vision and devotion to innovation have been hallmarks of Arcos’ history, from the 1920s through today. Welding is an essential factor of progress. For 100 years, Arcos has devoted itself to welding. When new metals or structures are designed, Arcos will be ready with the welding materials and processes.

ABOUT US

Arcos sets the standard in superior quality welding consumables. This provides our customer with a consistent product and reliable service. By having all Manufacturing, Quality Control, Research, Sales and Customer Service on one site this American-owned company delivers the exceptional made-in-America consumable products you need and backs them with the outstanding service you deserve. Arcos supports its welding consumables product line with complete testing and conversion capabilities. Our Quality Statement says it all, “Arcos will provide our customers with only the highest quality products, will provide these products on time and will provide our customers with the best value for our products.”

These days the expectation when you order something is “wish for the best” because you never know when you will receive the item or the level of quality. The customer service Patrick and the team at CTR gave was OUTSTANDING! Not only did my short timeline get met, but quality was nothing short of the best. Thank you for the great experience.

The Tradition continues to grow with Kaplan becoming a leading supplier of prepackaged Hydrocarbon gases for the cannabis industry.

All Kaplan products meet the rigorous standards of DOT/ISO and come from manufacturing facilities that have been qualified and meet ISO 9001 or higher quality standards.

From our Family to yours, the tradition goes on.

KAPLAN INDUSTRIES YOUR TOTAL CYLINDER SOLUTION PROVIDER

Over six decades ago, two brothers, Albert and Morris Kaplan, founded an independent surplus company that still bears their name to this day. Working out of a small Philadelphia location seven days a week, the brothers, through hard work and common-sense marketing, were able to supply local welding and fire protection distributors with compressed gas cylinders and related equipment.

In 1959, A-M Fire Equipment Company was founded. Upon acquiring UL approval, the company was one of the first distributors in this area to service the fire and safety distributors with their requirements for soda acid and CO 2 fire extinguishers.

Through the growth of A-M Fire Equipment, Kaplan Industries, Inc. was formed, focusing on supplying their established customer base with an expanded line of new and reconditioned steel compressed gas cylinders. Due to demand, Kaplan Industries, Inc. broadened its product line with the addition of reconditioning cryogenic and propane cylinders, and packaging hydrocarbon gases for the cannabis industry. This was accomplished through hands-on experience, hard work, and dedication. By 1969, due to the increase in business, this once modest operation had outgrown its small location in Philadelphia. Morris Kaplan set his sights on a larger facility located just across the river in a busy industrial section of Maple Shade, New Jersey.

By the mid-1980s, two of Morris’ children, Dean and Rita, had become vital members of the company. Dean began at an entry-level position and through earnest dedication propelled himself to the position of President by his late twenties. Rita first began as a Customer Service Representative and within five years, through a sincere desire to succeed, achieved the position of Vice President. As the company continued to grow it became crucial to move to a new location with more space to enable future growth. In 2011 having purchased the Midwest Cylinder company in Harrison Ohio, the Kaplan siblings decided to expand their grounds and moved to a 16-acre facility in Harrison, Ohio which is now Kaplan Industries national headquarters.

ABOUT US

Kaplan Industries Inc. is a second generation family business evolving into its third , with memberships including IOMA, GAWDA, DEMA, ARW, and HARDI.

Since its humble beginnings in 1973, Ray Murray, Inc. (RMI) has grown into one of the largest distributors of propane gas equipment and appliances in the United States. Mike Hopsicker, RMI’s President and CEO, has been with the company since 2005. In January 2021, Mike purchased 100% ownership of the company.

Now celebrating its 50th Anniversary in 2023, Ray Murray, Inc. was founded on the concept of Complete Customer Care. Complete Customer Care, an industry revolution in Customer-focused business embraced by founder Ray Murray when RMI began in 1973, is defined by the environment of friendliness, professionalism and accuracy as it relates to you and your business with us.

Over the last several years, the company and its industries certainly faced their share of headwinds and challenges, but ultimately RMI was able to enjoy significant growth and expand its geographic reach through a combination of 4 acquisitions. It has grown to be one of the largest two-step distributors in both the propane and hearth and grill industries.

RMI’s experienced sales team and four warehouse locations throughout the Midwest and Eastern Seaboard combined with its industry-wide commitment to Complete Customer Care, make Ray Murray, Inc. and the RMI family of companies your one stop wholesale supplier for gas equipment, heating, hearth and outdoor living products.

IN THE BEGINNING OF 2020 . . .

we added the Amada Laser System. It allows us to further automate our precision cutting and quality control. This summer, we added the Perform Arc Robotic Welding System to help increase productivity on certain items with the support of our welders operating the machine. “This decreases the amount of skilled labor required, increases productivity, and reduces labor fatigue,” stated Welby Wu our lead engineer on this project. To accommodate the robot, we restructured our welding booths providing a larger and brighter work areas, and placed acorn welding tables to provide a durable and long lasting work surface. These improvements and equipment additions have helped us become even more e cient and improved worker safety..

ABOUT US

In the late 1980’s Jimmy Walker Sr. saw the need for a self-contained oxy/acetylene unit- or cutting torch outfit. After being unable to find manufacturers to produce his cart, Walker began acquiring equipment he bought from local auctions. Walker developed the very first Saf-T-Cart as an extension of Walker Welders in 1997. Today, Saf-T-Cart has expanded to produce cylinder carts, cages, pallets, truck beds, and trailers, and employs over 100 people in its everyday manufacturing operation. Saf-T-Cart sells to all 50 states, Canada, Latin America and beyond. With 60 years in the industry, Saf-T-Cart is constantly developing new innovations which change the way cylinder transport is accomplished in the packaged gas industry. Saf-T-Cart’s growth can only be attributed to the loyalty and dedication from our customer base, which remains our primary focus to this day.

SETTING THE STANDARD SINCE 1996

Select-Arc, Inc. commenced operations in 1996 with one specific goal in mind: to set the welding industry standard by providing the highest quality products, the best service and the most value-added to our customers. Electrode specifiers, who recognized the outstanding reputations of Select-Arc’s management team, were the first to make the switch to Select-Arc. In a few short years the company’s prestige and exceptional product o erings expanded the customer base tremendously and necessitated that our facilities follow suit. We have expanded our design, research, manufacturing and support capabilities six times in the company’s brief history.

At Select-Arc, we achieve excellence every day by employing the latest in manufacturing equipment and technology. Our rigorous engineering and manufacturing standards ensure maximum quality in feedability, weldability and weld performance. This means that once you discover Select-Arc’s commitment to quality and service, you will appreciate what so many other welding professionals have come to know...that Select-Arc is “The Standard of Excellence in Tubular Welding Electrodes.”

EMPOWERING PRODUCTIVITY

Founder Richard Bennett created Weldcoa in 1968 to support his Gas & Welding Distributorship, Benster Welding. He was not an engineer, he was an inventor. Weldcoa was his “Mad Scientist” shop where he experimented with America’s very first Palletized Cylinder Transportation System. From there, Weldcoa has grown into an A to Z supplier of cylinder transportation, storage, and filling for major and regional distributors throughout North America.

“We have a deep bench of industry professionals who have filled cylinders, delivered cylinders and actually worked with the equipment we design. That is a huge distinction between us and our competitors. Companies recognize our value because our results are not only immediate, but also long term,” says Maynard “Bud” Klotz, Vice President and Co-Owner of Weldcoa.

Today, Weldcoa’s automated systems are considered the Global Leader in both Next-Step Technology and Long-Term Reliability. Weldcoa’s patented Pallet System has grown into the most widely used system in North America.

For over 50 years we have made it our mission to support gas distributors. From palletization to specialty gas filling and automation we have continually innovated solutions that have reshaped our industry. Now we all move more e ciently, fill more consistently and work more productively. That’s why so many gas distributors turn to Weldcoa for ways to improve their business.
