Industrial Processes
LPG is an extremely versatile fuel ideal for use in many industrial sectors.
Some of the more common industrial uses of LPG include; Powder Coating, Spray Booth, Oven Baking, Shrink Wrapping, Metal Smelting, Concrete Curing, Profile Cutting Line
Even in circumstances where mains gas is a possibility, LPG has two further important benefits that make it an ideal choice for the surface engineering and product finishing industry. Firstly it has a higher calorific value and so burns 'hotter' than natural gas and, secondly, an LPG installation provides a truly independent fuel supply, with security that brings in production.

Switching To LPG?
If you're using an alternative fuel, such as oil, electricity or solid fuels, then switching to cleaner, greener LPG offer your business considerable savings and environmental benefits:
- LPG has low carbon to hydrogen ration which means that it will generate lower amounts of CO2 per amount of heat produced.
- LPG has a comparably high heating value, meaning it contains more energy per kg than most competing fuels.
- According to the UN international panel on climate change (IPCC), LPG is not a greenhouse gas, meaning it is assigned a global warming potential (GWP) factor of 0. The IPCC lists the GWP actor of CO2 as 1 (by definition as it is the equivalent measure of a carbon footprint) and methane as 25.
