.airliquide
Is .airliquide a real TLD? Who’s applying to run it?
.airliquide is not contested. One application for it is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list, as of 7 October 2026. It is Air Liquide.
A single-company brand domain: useful only to its owner for its own web addresses, with no open registrations or resale market.
the applicant company itself and its subsidiaries, using the string for corporate, regional and campaign addresses under its own control; no third-party buyer exists
The 2012 applications making the most similar bet. Chosen by AI from every string in that round, without being told what happened to any of them.
Same bet exactly: a listed European industrial-gases group puts its corporate name in the root purely as owned identity for a B2B customer base, with no registration demand, no consumer audience, and nothing to monetize — success only requires the company to keep existing.
A European specialty-chemicals group making the identical defensive corporate-identity bet: the string is the firm's own name, the only plausible registrant is the firm itself, and the payoff is internal/partner-facing control rather than any traffic or sales.
Another French-headquartered industrial-materials supplier betting its own name in the root for a trade and distributor audience with zero retail pull; it is one notch off because the string is a product brand sitting under a parent group rather than the group name itself.
What a .airliquide domain is
.airliquide is not a TLD yet. It is a string on our record of the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, filed under Brand. One application for it is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list.
Is the .airliquide domain extension real yet?
.airliquide is not yet a domain extension you can register: nothing resolves under it, and no registrar sells names in it. It is a string applicants have put forward in the ICANN 2026 new gTLD round, the process that decides whether it becomes one.
When can you buy a .airliquide domain?
You can’t yet. ICANN publishes every applied-for string on Reveal Day, 7 October 2026 at 18:00 UTC. A .airliquide name can only be registered after that, once the string is delegated and its registry opens. Last round's closest parallel to .airliquide was .linde, delegated on 16 September 2015.
Is .airliquide a real TLD?
Not yet. .airliquide is not in the DNS root, so nothing resolves under it. It’s here because .airliquide is on ICANN’s Reveal Day list of applied-for strings. Every entry on this page links to its source.

- The string is a corporate name, and the verified facts show a single confirmed applicant (ICANN application ID AI2686T-T93348, L'Air Liquide, with a contention count of 1 and no category tag recorded), which is the shape of a closed dot-brand: the only registrant will be the brand owner, so there is no open market, no aftermarket, and no third-party primary-identity use. Band chosen: 10-29 (vanity/narrow). Not the 30-49 band because registrations at volume or on price cannot happen when the only possible registrant is one company; not the 1-9 band because, by analogy with dot-brands from the previous application round, a confirmed applicant that completes delegation has a realistic if narrow end-use market in its own corporate and subsidiary addresses, and some large European brand owners did migrate real properties onto their strings (analogy, not a verified fact for this string). Within the band the score sits low because end-use utility is modest and any credibility uplift accrues to the company rather than to address holders in a market sense. Main market uncertainty: whether the owner actually moves customer-facing properties onto the string or leaves it defensive and largely unused, as a large share of earlier-round dot-brands did (analogy); usage, not registration, decides whether an address here carries any signal over the next 5 years.
