Frequently asked questions

Yes, LPG is a versatile fuel widely used in many industrial applications and production processes. These include space, process and water heating, metal processing, drying of products, food manufacturing, petrochemical production and powering industrial ovens, kilns and furnaces.

Unlike petrol and diesel, LPG can be stored indefinitely as it doesn’t go off. The only limit to its shelf life is not the gas itself but the bottle or bulk storage tank it’s held in. As LPG doesn’t go bad, it’s the ideal fuel for emergency generators as its effectiveness remains the same.
