BOC Sureserve helps to tackle used gas cylinders

BOC Sureserve makes an attempt to tackle used dispense gas cylinders creating a safety hazard for licensees and customers.

Every year up to about 20,000 used dispense gas cylinders left unclaimed or damaged in pubs and clubs are ‘salvaged’ by the trade association Keg Watch and where possible, returned to the cylinder owner.

Over the next six months BOC Sureserve staff in the south of England will be an extra pair of eyes for the association – noting the number and location of unclaimed cylinders and passing that information to Keg Watch.

BOC Sureserve product manager, Piers Capper said: $quot;The tie-up with Keg Watch will definitely see more cylinders returned to the rightful owner but more importantly, will help improve gas safety in the hospitality industry.$quot;
