Hexagon Ragasco, a division of Hexagon Composites, and Linde, the global industrial gas company and Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) marketer in Norway, have introduced Linktra Smart cylinder nationwide in Norway on 17th April 2024.
This launch follows a regional pilot programme conducted during the summer of 2023 in Oslo and its surrounding areas. The Linktra Smart cylinders, previously known as AGA Smart Cylinders, received excellent feedback from consumers.
Hexagon Ragasco’s Linktra Smart cylinders bring LPG technology into the digital era. They come with an Internet of Things (IoT) feature that allows consumers to connect the cylinder to their mobile phones. This enables users to quickly check the gas level and receive notifications when a refill is needed.
Linktra also integrates with the IT systems of LPG distributors, providing insights into consumer usage patterns. This facilitates optimised logistics, ensuring the cylinder is always available when a customer needs a refill.
“Linde’s launch of the Linktra Smart cylinder has strengthened our two-decade long partnership with Linde, and we are thrilled to contribute to bringing new technology to local LPG users in Norway,” said Skjalg S. Stavheim, President, Hexagon Ragasco. “The introduction of this new product further strengthens our reputation for delivering innovation, safety, and quality. Together with Linde, a pioneer in the Nordic countries, we will continue to raise the standard for user-friendly LPG.”
“The AGA Smart Cylinder allows users to have full control of the LPG cylinder gas level for their domestic or leisure activities,” added Morten Roness, Head of Consumer Sales Norway, Linde. “At the same time, we at Linde, obtain real time data to optimise our logistic operations and product availability for customers.”
