Firm unveils new non-explosive LPG cylinders in Nigeria

Aburi Composites, an advanced composite materials company based in Lagos, has concluded plans to launch its new LPG cylinders.
According to the company, the new line of Aburi Composite LPG Cylinders is lightweight, non-explosive, translucent, environmentally friendly, corrosion proof and UV resistant.

In order to resolve many problems associated with steel cylinders, Aburi Composites has developed brand new composite LPG cylinders, which represent a clear transformation for Nigeria.

Aburi cylinders are composed of a seamless anti-permeation thermoplastic liner, which is fully wrapped with epoxy resin, providing an unmatched combination of lightweight, high tensile strength and corrosion proof.

Aburi Composite Cylinders are non-explosive – even when engulfed in fire. This is thanks to the heavy-duty composite makeup of the product, which is manufactured to the strict standards of EN12245: 2002, EN14427: 2004, ISO 11119-3TPED, Dir.2010/35/EU and ADR/RID 2012.

In addition to being fifty percent lighter than conventional steel cylinders, the composite solution is unique in that it is translucent and makes for easy visibility of LPG levels which was previously impossible.
