A Brief Overview
Based in Johannesburg, the Liquefied Petroleum Gas Safety Association of Southern Africa is non profit organisation that represents companies which are involved in the refining, distribution and retailing of LPGas and gas appliances.
As the industry body we are dedicated to the safe use of LP Gas, everywhere in Southern Africa - domestically, commercially and industrially. The LPGSASA works very closely with the various Government Departments including the South Africa Bureau of Standards and the various Fire Departments in the control and approval of all LP Gas sites, SABS National Standards and the Codes and Practices as they pertain to the industry.
The LP Gas Safety Association promotes safety in the industry and to this end presents a variety of training courses to cover all needs. As from August 1997 in terms of the OHS Act, only Registered LP Gas Installers shall install and maintain LP Gas installations.
