A dependable cylinder supply for kitchens, sites, farms and workshops, with a local team who get to know how your business uses gas.
Cylinders for business
Buying the odd cylinder is easy. Keeping a business supplied week after week, through busy spells and quiet ones, takes a supplier who plans with you.
When you set up commercial cylinder supply with us, we start by understanding your equipment, how much gas you use and where the cylinders will be kept. From there we agree the gas and cylinder sizes that suit you, how many to keep on site, and how you’d like to order.
If your demand is high and steady, we’ll also tell you honestly whether commercial bulk LPG would work out better.
Most of our cylinder orders are delivered the same or next working day, so you can keep a sensible stock on site rather than a yard full of spares.
Common problems
These are the issues that usually prompt businesses to look for a new cylinder supplier.

How we help: We help you work out how many cylinders to hold, and most orders are delivered the same or next working day.
Using butane outside in winter, or a size that needs changing every few hours.
How we help: We recommend the gas and size based on your equipment and how it is used.
