Through the years, liquefied petroleum gas or LPG has been the staple and most sustainable fuel source for cooking. And as they become native kitchen essentials, buying them also becomes more trivial. 

Now that most are staying in their homes, choosing the right kitchen fuel has never been more crucial in ensuring safety during this new era of indoor lifestyles. More importantly, as the industry is plagued with potential risks from substandard LPGs by illegal refillers, making smart LPG choices becomes more crucial in protecting lives and properties. 

Against the undying demand for fakes 

Following reports of unlawful trade of defective LPGs in various areas, Senator Grace Poe appealed to the Department of Energy (DOE) and the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) to intensify their efforts against unauthorized dealers and their persistent schemes.  

Likewise, in its recent series of bust operations, well-trusted LPG brand Solane is reiterating its commitment to protect consumer safety by highlighting the necessary lookouts to verify LPGs and calling for consumers to double their vigilance against fake cylinders. The company is also sending a strong message to unauthorized sellers on the brand’s pledge to help cut the supply and demand for dangerous, substandard LPGs. 

These concerted public and private initiatives aim to curb the thriving market of fake and copycat LPG tanks. However, despite the known hazards of gas leaks coming from these products, consumers continue to be apathetic to the risks in favor of momentary convenience or trading off their safety for a few of pesos saved.
