About Us

Bruce formed Woerner CO2 Consulting, Inc when he retired in 2023, after working at Airgas since 2001. Prior to that he worked for BOC (fka Airco & Linde) for 24 years.  He started in corporate planning, then got national account sales experience, and finally found his niche in CO2 in 1991, enjoying the industry too much to leave the business even when juggling other roles simultaneously. His responsibilities have included global CO2 product manager, vice president of business development and strategy, and director of CO2 sourcing, along with direct involvement in CO2 production, distribution, quality, plant procurement, construction, and sales.
