Hexagon Ragasco Celebrates 10 Million Cylinders Sold Worldwide

Today, millions of businesses and homes worldwide are using Hexagon Ragasco cylinders across a wide range of domestic, lifestyle and industrial applications.

With an exceptional safety record and unique features enabling propane distributors to gain market share while reducing their OPEX, the Hexagon Ragasco cylinders have steadily gained recognition over the past 15 years.

“What we have accomplished since we launched our product has surpassed our expectations; we feel confident to say today that we have set a new standard for propane users. In this special occasion, we would like to thank our customers for their trust and partnership”, said Skjalg S. Stavheim, Managing Director of Hexagon Ragasco.

Hexagon Ragasco started its operations in February 2000, and has developed since then a customer base mainly composed of propane distributors. In North America, under our brand Viking Cylinders, we also work with consumer-focused retail businesses specialized in BBQ accessories, recreational vehicles (RV) and marine appliances.

As one of the pioneers in the industry, Hexagon Ragasco has customers in over 70 countries and continues to build partnerships in new regions to help gas businesses increase customer loyalty without compromising on safety. Production is carried out in modern, fully automated facilities located in Raufoss, Norway.
