Grow your business with Viking Cylinders composite propane tanks!

Do you own a propane retail business, or another kind of retail business? If so, you know that propane cylinders are a popular product for both consumers and businesses.

However, with many businesses like yours offering propane cylinders, you are smartly looking for a way to make your propane cylinder services stand out. You get that and more when you add Viking Cylinders composite propane cylinders to your business!

Our cylinders are quite different than the old school metal cylinders. They are approximately half the weight and that, along with our ergonomic handles, make them much easier for customers to lift and carry.

Viking Cylinders also offer superior safety. For starters, every one of our cylinders is made in our state-of-the-art, fully automated facility, ensuring uniform quality. Also, our cylinders are BLEVE (Boiling Liquid Expanding Vapor Explosion)- free. Instead of pressure building up to an explosive point, the materials melt, allowing the propane inside to simply burn and dissipate.

Composite propane cylinders can be made in your business’ colors, to make them stand out from the competition. They are also easier to maintain, as they do not dent or rust, and have a 15-year life expectancy.

The durability and design of our cylinders, along with the lighter weight, allow for more efficient storage, transport, and handling, which reduces your operating costs.

All of this allows you to lower your costs while maximizing your profits.
