Nippon Sanso Holdings Corporation (NSHD) is set to strengthen its presence in the Australasian industrial gas market through the acquisition of the Coregas Group from Wesfarmers Limited. 

Announced on 20th December, the A$770 million ($480m) deal includes Coregas Pty Ltd, Blacksmith Jacks Pty Ltd, and Coregas NZ Limited, covering operations in Australia and New Zealand.
