Our presence in Africa has become more important in the course of the past years and we wish to continue working with Tanzanian regional stakeholders and LPG users to spread the word about our innovative and safer technology along with the real advantages offered by our award-winning cylinder. The lighter weight, translucency and rust-free characteristics of our cylinders, combined with their increased safety can positively impact and change the way LPG is used in Tanzania.
