BIG joins hands with dealer partners to open 7 new free oxygen refill points in Rayong, Chon Buri, Prachin Buri, Chantaburi, and Trat. Foundations, public health volunteers, and rescue squads can bring oxygen cylinders and have free oxygen refill to help covid-19 patients waiting to be admitted to hospital for treatment.
Mr. Piyabut Charuphen, Managing Director of Bangkok Industrial Gas Company Limited (BIG) – Thailand’s largest oxygen producer – revealed that BIG had expanded the dealer network to open free oxygen refill for agencies in the eastern region. BIG works with Thai Gas Product Limited Partnership, the eastern-region dealer, to set up free oxygen refill for foundations, public health volunteers, and rescue squads in the eastern area where provinces classified in the dark red zone such as Rayong, Chon Buri, Prachin Buri, Chantaburi, and Trat are located.
Cylinders under Thai industrial standard (TSI) for medical oxygen with a lifetime under 5 years are accepted while those with an over-5-year lifetime require a hydrostatic test every 5 years according to TSI 385-2551. Free oxygen refill is available at BIG’s dealer network as follows:

“The covid-19 situation in Thailand leads to the rapid increase in new confirmed cases. In many provinces, the number of patients exceeds the hospital bed capacity. There are many patients under home isolation. Critical patients need “medical oxygen” while waiting for hospital beds.
BIG, therefore, opens free oxygen refill for foundations, public health volunteers, and rescue squads to help yellow patients in the semi-critical zone recover, which enables them to be transferred to the green zone,” Mr. Piyabut said.
