Purchasing managers in the natural gas vehicle (NGV) and industrial gas storage sectors face three critical pain points with CNG cylinders:
Steel and aluminum price volatility (per IEA Gas Market Report 2026) has caused CNG cylinder costs to fluctuate by up to 40% in 2025. Many suppliers add middleman markups of 15–25%.
Post-pandemic supply chain disruptions mean 4–6 month waits from traditional European/US manufacturers. Delays in Asia-Pacific LNG projects (per Global Gas Report 2025) exacerbate shortages.
Low-cost suppliers often cut corners on material thickness or pressure testing, risking safety failures. The MIT Natural Gas Study emphasizes that 90% of CNG accidents trace back to substandard cylinders.
Enric’s Solution: We vertically integrate steel sourcing, manufacturing, and logistics to offer stable, below-market pricing without compromising on DOT/CE/ISO standards.
