COOKING BBQ HEATING MARINE RECREATIONAL VEHICLES FORK-LIFT TRUCKS LAWN-MOWING CONSTRUCTION GENERATOR INNOVATION IN EVERY CYLINDER Hexagon Ragasco is the leading manufacture of seamless composite cylinders. The manufacturing process is as follows: First, an inner liner of polyethylene (HDPE) is blow-molded. Glass fibers and resin are then wound around the liner to create the pressure vessel. To provide even greater strength and bring an element of design to the cylinder, we add an outer layer in the form of a polyethylene (HDPE) casing. This distinctive casing, trademarked by Hexagon Ragasco, provides both protection and an ergonomic grip. It also allows customers to brand their cylinders. The entire process is done in-house and fully automated starting with the raw materials through to the completed cylinders on pallet ready for shipment, making Hexagon Ragasco the most efficiently-produced composite cylinders in the world. MEETING THE STANDARDS Hexagon Ragasco cylinders comply with a wide range of international standards and approvals. The principal ones include: ISO 9001 ISO 11119-3 EN 12245 EN 14427 DOT- SP 12706 TC-SU-5931
