Primus Power Gas – 450g Gas Cartridge

Product Information

Our goal is to deliver the strongest product possible, from a sustainability perspective. When we move production of SIP Power Gas closer to our largest markets, we decrease the distance the fuel is transported. This results in a significate reduction of the canisters' climate impact than regular Primus Power Gas. Our products are made in the best factories in the world. We know the factories personally and they have all signed up to our Code of Ethics in our supply chain. This includes the Ethical Trading Initiative base code, fair pay, safe working environments, no child labour, no modern slavery, no bribery or corruption, no materials from conflict zones and humane farming methods. The Swedish partner then sells the mix of biogas and fossil gas to customers who can technically fill that gas into their products. This is the first step in our journey of providing a more sustainable stove fuel. Although this model does not include filling our SIP Power Gas canisters with “green molecules,” we have taken one major step – we have secured and supported production of biogas.

While we traditionally have sourced our gas from South Korea, we have moved the production for SIP Power Gas to Greece to be closer to our main customer base. From there, the gas is now being transported to Northern Germany and then to Sweden – a significant shortening of the delivery routes. The reason that production was not moved directly to Northern Europe is that there is currently no infrastructure in Sweden or Germany to fill biogas into camping gas containers in these countries.All our factories sign up to our Code of Conduct.

Welcome to our complete collection of outdoor gear! We offer a wide range of products to help you make the most of your adventures in the great outdoors. Our product line includes:Some common types of camping stove fuels include propane, butane, isobutane and white gas. Yet, it is not only the products and their raw materials themselves that leave a strong ecological footprint but also their supply chains. Camping stove fuel can be produced in various locations worldwide, depending on the fuel type. We have joined the Science Based Targets Initiative which sets independent targets for us to achieve to do our bit to limit global warming to 1.5°C. Our targets are to halve our Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions by 2025 based on 2018 base year and reduce our total carbon intesnity by 15% every year to achieve genuine net zero by 2050. The figures show how positive the effects of this process can be: If such products are filled with biogas instead of fossil fuels, their CO2 emissions can decrease dramatically. The Swedish partner then adds the same amount of biogas (coming from a Swedish biogas refinery) to its overall production. Primus is paying for the extra costs. To assess and evaluate environmental impacts connected to SIP Power Gas, we conducted a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) screening with aid from an independent third party. When developing a product with as little environmental impact as possible, all the steps in the supply chain need to be under evaluation. This means that every link in the process has been reviewed in detail to examine the environmental impact of each step. The ultimate goal is to deliver the strongest product possible, from a sustainability perspective.
