GAWDA Suppliers Project Bounce Back Year in 2026 With 2025 in the rear view mirror and the uncertainty of the tariffs largely settled, GAWDA Suppliers anticipate a bounce-back year. Many suppliers point to pent-up demand, largely stemming from customers waiting out the tariffs or simply pushing existing products to the brink. This year, that dam will break, as customers will make product and capital investments, which will benefit the gases and welding industry. Further increases in AI and data centers will also require industry support. All told, 2026 projects to be banner year for GAWDA Suppliers. Thank you to all…

Like the GAWDA distributors, GAWDA’s supplier respondents are also going into 2024 with expectations of growth, though tempered with warnings about outside influences like continued supply chain issues, labor challenges, and the looming threat of geopolitical forces that could dampen what should be a robust year of growth. The following are responses from GAWDA suppliers across North America about their expectations for 2024. We thank all of the suppliers who participated in this year’s forecast.
