Liquefied Petroleum Gas
(LPG) is distributed in three ways (for more information on what
exactly LPG is, click here):
- Bulk gas: Propane gas in tanks which are filled by gas tankers.
- Propane cylinders: Propane gas in portable red cylinders of
different sizes for location outdoors.
- Butane cylinders: Butane gas in smaller portable cylinders for
use indoors.
Flogas distributes LPG in all three forms and
with different options to suit all customers. For more information
on the usage of each, see the Technical Information section.
Bulk Gas
Flogas has four storage terminals
strategically located throughout the country to keep
customer bulk tanks topped up at all times. The terminals
are located at Drogheda, Cork, Ballyhaunis and Belfast.
This network of terminals ensure a constant and speedy
distribution of LPG to customers nationwide. LPG deliveries
to all customers are geared to suit their individual
needs - customers can order gas as they need it, or
use our computerised top-up system which obviates
the need for customers to order in advance (the top-up
system is not normally used for home heating customers
as the normal variation in invoicing is too high due
to the lower usage). This delivery service can operate
on a 24 hour per day, 7 days per week basis when required.

Propane Cylinders
In addition to Flogas filling
cylinders, there is a network of Flogas-appointed
filling plants (supplied by road tanker from Flogas
terminals) strategically located around the country
for maximum responsiveness. Complimenting this is
a comprehensive network of Flogas distributors and
dealers from whom cylinders can be purchased. Many
of these will deliver and connect up propane cylinders
if required. If you contact us, we can advise on who
your local dealers are and who will provide a delivery
service.

Butane Cylinders
Butane cylinders are sold by Flogas
under two brands, Flogas and Ergas. They are filled
and distributed in the same manner as propane cylinders.
Again, if you contact us,
we can advise on who your local dealers are and who
will provide a delivery service.
