⚠️ Could you spot a fake gas cylinder?
As more South Africans turn to LP gas during winter, experts are warning consumers to be on the lookout for fake and illegally filled gas cylinders. These cylinders don't just put your wallet at risk—they can also compromise your safety.
Here are a few simple checks you can do before accepting a cylinder:
✅ Check the seal. The seal should match the brand of the cylinder. For example, an Easigas cylinder should have an Easigas seal—not a generic "LPG Gas" seal.
✅ Buy from a trusted supplier. Authorised distributors follow strict filling, testing and safety procedures before every cylinder leaves the depot.
✅ Be cautious of mixed brands. If a supplier is selling or delivering multiple brands of full cylinders, it could be a warning sign that the cylinders have been illegally refilled.
At Emalahleni Gas Distributors, your safety is our priority. As an approved Easigas distributor and proud Safe LP Gas Network member, we're committed to supplying correctly filled cylinders that meet the highest safety standards.
