Brothers Gas launches home safety drive

Dubai, February 28, 2010

Brothers Gas Bottling and Distribution, a leading provider of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) in the UAE, has launched a campaign aimed to spread awareness about the salient features of LPG, including its safety aspects as well as handling.

The campaign entitled Home Safe Home will also focus on storage and usage of LPG cylinders in households and customers can call a toll-free hotline to pre book a free LPG safety check at their home.

This service is currently available only in selected areas of Dubai, Ajman and Ras Al Khaimah. Customers will be serviced by a fleet of over 50 dedicated distribution fleet and staff trained in cylinder installation.

As part of the safety campaign, the Brothers Gas, a part of the Al Ghurair Trading Group, will also distribute flyers and other educational material across the Emirates. The free safety check offer extends till March 31.

“Safety First is our motto at Brothers Gas,” said Ali Aman, divisional manager of Brothers Gas.

“We work very closely with the Civil Defense Authority to make the environment safer and healthier. LPG gas, which is one of the most popular fuels for cooking can also be very hazardous if not installed within certain standards. It is important that the properties and safe handling of LPG are understood and applied in domestic applications,” he added.

“We believe that educating homeowners is vital to reduce the incidence of fires and accidents due to gas leakage,” Aman continued.

“This could result due to faulty connections, cylinder corrosion, lack of proper ventilation or use of substandard parts and equipment. The Home Safe Home initiative will include a ten point safety check list which would involve our staff conducting LPG equipment checks and providing free consultancy to homeowners on LPG safety. Customers will also be provided with a Brothers Gas Safety booklet carrying all the information,” he concluded. – TradeArabia News Service
