Airgas, has declared a force majeure on helium shipments due to production suspensions resulting from the Iran war. Healthcare and other industries will be prioritized. Procurement is meeting w/Airgas this coming week to understand the allocations we will face under the force majeure.  All helium orders will be reviewed by Airgas before processing to ensure our allocation will meet the demand.
