Emissions Report

Flo-Control Fuel can takes approx 14 seconds to deliver 5 litres of fuel.

A standard fuel can takes 87 seconds to deliver 5 litres.

During all of that time petrol fumes are being released into the atmosphere, by using a Flo-control fuel can you can reduce that pollution by nearly 85%.

Therefore, if 1 million Flo-Control fuel cans were used just once on 1 day, to empty a full 5 litres in one go (instead of the standard can), then 73 seconds per can would be saved, Which = 9.10 tonnes of grog. Equivalent of taking off the road in 24 hours 104,552 cars. (this test was carried out using several of the most popular 5 litre fuel cans, and working out an average)

This is the lowest amount of saving, you save much more with a Flo control fuel can in general use against standard fuel cans, when being used throughout the day. , the standard fuel cans are also often left with the spout exposed and drenched in fuel, which has fuel vapour inside, further being exposed to the atmosphere.

Further vapour would also be saved by the reduction in spillage, and the vapours that those spillages omit.

Protecting the environment from Pollution, and protecting workers from fumes and emissions in the workplace,

Did you know that you only need about 1 - 1.5% of petrol vapour (lower explosive limit) in the air to have an explosive atmosphere! One cup of petrol will produce about 5 litres of pure vapour and this will produce about 300 litres of explosive mixture at the lower explosive limit!
