One Small Spark: A Celebration of Our Service-Driven History

SAN DIEGO, CA, February 14, 2025 — We’re proud to introduce the latest phase of WestAir’s brand evolution that honors our roots as a family-owned business while embracing modern customer service innovations.

From its humble beginnings in 1970 with a $3,000 loan and borrowed delivery truck in San Diego County, WestAir has grown into a leading independent gas distributor committed to providing unparalleled service to its customers.

As a fourth-generation family business, WestAir pairs the personal touch of local ownership with modern conveniences like enhanced digital tools and 24/7 support, proving our commitment goes far beyond just distributing gases.

Our evolving brand identity reflects both its heritage and future-forward vision, while emphasizing what has always set the company apart: personalized service worth rallying around.

The ongoing brand transformation represents WestAir’s commitment to meet customers where they make decisions, whether that’s through digital platforms, personal interaction, or innovative service solutions.

“While WestAir’s look continues to evolve, Customer service remains our main priority,” says Andy Castiglione, President. “What began with my grandfather, Andrew Castiglione Sr., has grown into a family of its own, with staff dedicating decades to this legacy. As we look ahead to 2026, we’re excited to introduce new service innovations that will further enhance how we support our customers’ success.“

Key Features of the Brand

• A distinctive wordmark with 70° rounded edges, paying homage to liquid gases and the company’s founding year – The diamond “tittle” was intended to mimic the NFPA diamonds.
• An innovative icon utilizing the Hermann Grid Effect, representing the four main atmospheric gas groups and the concept of “rallying around” service – And four generations of Castiglione’s
• A visual identity that emphasizes WestAir’s position as the family-owned independent that delivers better service than global competitors
• Continuous digital enhancements, including an intuitive e-commerce platform and 24/7 customer service chat backed by comprehensive FAQ resources

Looking ahead, WestAir will continue to roll out new digital tools and service enhancements throughout 2025 and 2026, all designed to make doing business easier and more efficient for customers.

These developments will build upon the company’s core values (Goodwill, Accountability, Selflessness, Equality, and Sustainability) while ensuring WestAir continues to define customer service excellence in the gas distribution industry.
