Emirates Gas, a subsidiary of ENOC Group, will commence the installation, supply and distribution of composite LPG cylinders within Al Khail Gate’s residential community.
The project is part of an agreement between Emirates Gas and Dubai Properties (DP) signed earlier this year to supply residents with safer cooking gas cylinders.
His Excellency Saif Humaid Al Falasi, Group CEO, ENOC, said: “The LPG industry across the world is witnessing a major shift from traditional LPG steel cylinders to composite cylinders facilitating a safe environment in domestic kitchens. The installation of these new state-of-the-art cylinders integrated with LPG safety systems reinforces our commitment towards upholding the highest environment, health and safety standards, and innovating to provide the best quality of products and services to our customers.â€
As the first and only supplier of these aesthetically-appealing composite LPG cylinders, Emirates Gas will exclusively meet all LPG requirements in DP communities, starting with Al Khail Gate.
Arif Mubarak, Chief Executive Office at Dubai Properties Asset Management, said: “At Dubai Properties Asset Management, we place high importance on the safety of our residents and tenants. We are firmly committed to constantly upgrading our properties’ infrastructure, to maintain a secure environment across all our communities. The commencement of the installations of the state of the art LPG composite cylinders, which is a first of its kind being installed in the UAE, is a testament to these efforts as they bring a safe and resilient infrastructure to the residents of Al Khail Gate.â€
With the installation of composite cylinders system set to be implemented in two phases and to be completed in Q1 2018, over 9,000 units of Al Khail Gate will have in each kitchen an LPG Gas leak detection sensor that will trigger a shutdown of gas supply from the cylinders through a Solenoid Valve supplemented by an emergency shutdown switch.
