Where can you find a dependable c size gas bottle supplier that meets U.S. safety standards, offers competitive OEM pricing, and delivers on time? Whether you need CO₂ cylinders for soda fountains, N₂O for culinary foams, or oxygen for medical backup, the "C" size (approximately 20 lb water capacity / 9.1 kg) is one of North America's most specified formats. Zhuzhou XingYe Chemical is a direct Chinese manufacturer with over 10 years of expertise, ISO 9001 certification, and a dedicated export team that ships thousands of c size gas bottle units annually to U.S. import managers, wholesalers, and brand owners. Here is exactly what you need to know before your next bulk order.

Why Most Buyers Struggle to Find a Trustworthy C Size Gas Bottle Supplier

After working with dozens of gas equipment buyers across the U.S. and Europe, the same three obstacles keep coming up:

• Inconsistent quality & safety compliance: Cylinders that do not meet DOT (U.S. Department of Transportation) or ISO standards create liability issues and costly delays.
• Unreliable lead times: Some factories quote 15 days, then deliver in 45. For brand owners and wholesalers, this means lost shelf space and broken contracts.
• Limited customization support: Import managers often need private labeling, custom valve configurations, or specific packaging – but many suppliers treat OEM as an afterthought.

These pain points erode trust and increase total cost of ownership. A sourcing agent I advised in Chicago once lost an $80k contract because his supplier's C size bottles arrived with the wrong CGA 320 valve threads.

How XingYe Chemical Solves These Pain Points – Factory Direct, Verified Quality

Powerful Factory, Proven Capacity
XingYe Chemical operates a dedicated gas cylinder production line with 150+ skilled workers and covers a full process from steel cylinder forming to final gas filling and valve assembly. Our annual output for C size gas bottles exceeds 80,000 units, allowing us to maintain a standard lead time of 20–25 days (even faster for repeat orders).

Stringent Quality Assurance
Every C size gas bottle undergoes hydrostatic pressure testing (to 300 bar), valve leak detection, and surface treatment inspection before packing. We are certified under ISO 9001:2015, and our N₂O and CO₂ filling lines comply with ECM, COA, and Food-Grade gas standards (relevant for beverage and culinary applications).

C Size Gas Bottle – Common Applications in the U.S. Market

• Beverage dispensing (CO₂): Soda fountains, draft beer systems, and carbonated water machines – the C size is widely used in restaurants, bars, and concession stands.
• Culinary N₂O cream chargers: Whipped cream dispensers and culinary foams in professional kitchens and bakeries.
• Medical backup oxygen: Portable oxygen supply for emergency services, clinics, and home care (C size O₂ bottles are a standard EMS unit).
• Industrial shielding gas: Small-scale welding and cutting operations that require compact CO₂ or argon cylinders.
• Aquarium & hydroponics: CO₂ injection for pH control and plant growth in commercial greenhouses and aquaculture facilities.

Why Import Managers & Brand Owners Trust XingYe Chemical

We are not a trading company – we own the production line, the quality lab, and the export documentation team. This vertical integration allows us to control cost, timing, and compliance tightly. Our certifications (ISO 9001, ECM, COA, Food-Grade) and our compliance with U.S. import protocols (FDA registration for food-grade gases) give you confidence from sample to bulk order.

We also help buyers navigate customs clearance – providing HS codes (e.g., 7311.00 for steel cylinders), MSDS sheets, and certificate of origin to smooth your import process.
