Specialty Mixture OXY-CO2 10% CS K and 1 more item

The University of Virginia awarded contract A207_PO-0477076 to Praxair Distribution Inc. on September 4, 2026, for the supply of specialty industrial gases. The contract encompasses two primary deliverables: a specialty oxygen-carbon dioxide mixture (10 percent CO2) and nitrogen (N2) of pharmaceutical grade. Two cylinders of each product were procured and delivered to Rachel Clements at the University of Virginia. The specialty oxygen-carbon dioxide mixture was priced at $247.44 per cylinder, while the nitrogen was priced at $26.42 per cylinder.

The cumulative contract value totaled $547, reflecting the purchase of four gas cylinders for institutional use. As a Virginia-based procurement by a state higher education institution, this award represents a straightforward commodity purchase of industrial gases from an established distributor. The contract does not specify an extended performance period, suggesting this was a one-time or as-needed purchase order fulfillment rather than a standing supply agreement.
