Our individual Shareholders are essential partners in our growth. Ambitious industrial projects, environmental impact, intergenerational transmission: their voices reflect their expectations, their convictions, and their attachment to Air Liquide. The privileged relationship that unites us fuels our ambition to keep building the Group's future together.

I see myself as an Air Liquide ambassador

When my grandson was born, I immediately suggested to my daughter that we give him Air Liquide shares. I explained to him that he would own a small piece of the company. It's important to pass that on — not just a financial asset, but also a way of looking at the world. To me, Air Liquide is a company that respects its employees, respects the environment, and has a global reach, both in healthcare and industry. This strong and responsible foundation also supports the company’s long-term performance. Its global scale gives the Group the ability to reward its Shareholders through dividends, but above all through free share grants. I see myself as an Air Liquide ambassador: it's a French flagship company, and one I really trust.

I’m convinced I'm investing in a solid company

Air Liquide was my very first stock, and that's no coincidence. I'm convinced I'm investing in a company that is solid, built for the long term, and is able to reinvent itself. Air Liquide is also a company that is aligned with my values, and one where I feel valued as a Shareholder.

The future of the planet is our future

I'm particularly interested in Air Liquide's activities in healthcare and hydrogen, as well as the Group's decarbonization efforts. As we face climate challenges, it's important to see major companies embracing values of social responsibility and investing in research and innovation to develop low-carbon solutions.

Air Liquide is positioned on future-defining technologies

I became an Air Liquide Shareholder thanks to my father. He'd been trying to get me started for a long time, but I was a little intimidated by the stock market. When my daughter was born, he made it very concrete: he gave me a sum of money to buy Air Liquide shares for her. So my daughter became a Shareholder at just six months old, and I became one as well through a donation-sharing. Air Liquide is a well-managed company with values I share, positioned on future-defining technologies like hydrogen. I've also followed the development of projects internationally, particularly in South Korea. I invest for the long term. It's a story of legacy and trust.

Air Liquide is a company with a real purpose

My shares are deeply tied to my family story. I inherited them, and I want to pass them on to my own children in turn. To me, Air Liquide is a safe, humane, and meaningful investment—and a company with a real purpose.
