ENOC Group’s subsidiary Emirates Gas (EMGAS) and Emarat have jointly introduced a new seal for LPG cylinders. The new seal adds to the safety of users, maintains the availability of authentic products, and increases operational efficiencies in the market while protecting consumer rights, according to ENOC’s press release.

The unified Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC) seal has various new elements including colour, material, position of the hologram and a unique serial number along with tamper-proof features.

Green in colour, the new seal carries the hologram of Emirates Gas and Emarat, each with a unique serial number positioned horizontally on the shrink seal to mitigate any illegal distribution of LPG cylinders by unauthorised distributors.

“Introducing the new seal for LPG cylinders is one of several measures we undertake to curb attempts which threaten the safety of customers, employees and members of the community. This initiative underpins our commitment to maintain the highest HSE standards at Emirates Gas as well as add to the safety and well-being of our customers,” says Saif Humaid Al Falasi, Group CEO, ENOC Group.

“Echoing our esteemed partners at ENOC Group, the safety of our customers is of principal importance and the introduction of a new and improved LPG cylinder seal ensures an additional layer of operational reassurance,” comments Ali Khalifa Al Shamsi, Director General, Emarat.

Emirates Gas and Emarat are the only two Government authorised entities allowed to fill LPG cylinders at its bottling plants located in Dubai.
