More messages for drinks dispense gas users in pubs, clubs and restaurants.

In a previous blog we discussed the dangers of not having a scrupulous supplier of drinks dispense gas. Now we will point out how to spot a good drinks dispense gas cylinder.

By law, all dispense gas cylinders must clearly display a label or other printed information covering the following items:

  • Product identity.
  • Supplier's telephone number.
  • Supplier's name and address.
  • Hazard and precautionary statements.
  • Signal words.
  • Hazard warning diamond.                                                                                                               
Also by law, all cylinders supplied for drinks dispense must have a product traceability label on the cylinder, valve or valve guard. Usually, this will be a small label added to the cylinder with a series of numbers and letters (or a barcode) that means that the supplier can trace the cylinder and its contents in the event of any quality issue. These labels are changed every time the cylinder is refilled.

You must not use a dispense gas cylinder if it does not have product and traceability labels.

We will publish another blog shortly about cylinder testing and offer a check list to advise the drinks dispense gas customer.

Towler & Staines the Calor Gas Principal Dealer supplies Air Liquide Drinks Dispense Gas which complies stringently with the conditions we have been outlining.
