New Airgas eCatalog and Training Available in RealSource
Beginning August 14, 2026, VCU departments will be able to purchase industrial, medical and specialty gases, laboratory and safety products, welding supplies, and related items through the new Airgas eCatalog in RealSource.
The catalog will appear under Scientific & Medical in the RealSource Showcase and will provide direct access to VCU pricing while streamlining requisition and purchase-order processing. Users should select the Airgas account associated with their department and delivery location before shopping.
Airgas will offer two virtual training sessions covering catalog navigation, account selection, quotes and order placement:

The new eCatalog does not change the cylinder rental and pricing structure established under VCU’s current Airgas agreement. Departments may review the existing Airgas Contract Renewal and Changes to Cylinder Rental Billing post for additional information.
With the addition of Airgas, RealSource now offers 58 eCatalogs.
