PROFILE

Gas Distribution Division

Coreplat Resources Gas Distribution is a division of Coreplat Resources. The Division specialises mainly in the distribution and supply of liquid petroleum gas (LPG) to commercial and domestic users in the northern Johannesburg region such as Fourways, Northriding, and, Honeydew. We are a small team, mindlessly dedicated to the promotion of gas and gas products. We supply our customers with safe, excellent product consistency and a high level of customer service commitment.

The South African energy supply industry is characterised by unequal access to modern energy such as electricity and LPG. Low income households lack access to affordable, safe and cleaner energy sources for cooking and space heating. Power shortfalls in recent years and the increasing cost of electricity has resulted in the need for an energy mix that reduces the heavy dependence on electricity. The South African government has identified LPG as an alternative energy carrier of choice for household thermal needs. The LPG industry can provide an affordable and effective solution to household energy requirements that safe and reliable.

LPG Cylinder Exchange Process

The LPG industry has adopted a general practice for the exchange of LPG cylinders to allow consumers and gas users to swap one brand of LPG cylinder for another. However, this arrangement only applies to LPG cylinders owned by LPG suppliers who provide their cylinders to the market on a loan basis, against the payment of a refundable cylinder deposit. This provides greater accessibility of LPG to consumers and allows users the ability to switch between suppliers, should the need arise. The exchange process requires that certain opposition cylinders that come into the possession of LPG suppliers due to the exchange practice are returned to each competitor company and vice versa.

Health and Safety Policy

The safety of our customers, our neighbours, our contractors and our staff is of paramount concern to Coreplat Resources. Equal concern is given to health and environmental issues associated with our business and this is reflected in our Health, Safety and Environmental Policy.

Our business also follows the Health, Safety and Environmental Management System (HSE-MS), which is similar in concept to an ISO 9000 quality system. This ensures that the Health, Safety and Environmental risks associated with our business activities are as low as reasonably practical.

The equipment that we use in our business is designed, operated and maintained to high standards.

Every time a cylinder enters our filling plant, it is checked for damage and corrosion. It will only be filled if it passes this inspection.

After filling, every cylinder is checked to make sure that there are no leaks and to make sure that it has not been over-filled or under-filled. Only cylinders that pass these checks will leave the filling plant.

Every cylinder is pressure tested periodically to ensure that it is fit to be used.

Drivers of vehicles transporting LPG are trained in good driving practices, emergency procedures, etc.
