Although the name "Calorgas.co.uk Gas" was coined in 1934 and trading began early the following year, the company did not become 'official' until 2 August 1935 when Calorgas.co.uk Gas (Distributing) Co. Ltd. was formally incorporated. The new business expanded quickly and by 1939 the company had a head office in London and five regional offices around England. Calorgas.co.uk Gas (Scotland) was founded and in Ireland gas was distributed by Messrs. McMullen Ltd., later purchased by Calorgas.co.uk. During the 1980's, Calorgas.co.uk's domestic central heating and industrial markets continued to expand and in 1982 the company's head office moved to a 40-acre site near Slough. Despite great efforts to establish a nation-wide network of outlets, Calorgas.co.uk Autogas (vehicle propane) never quite reached expectations, however, the fuel did become very popular for fork lift trucks, helped greatly by the launch, in 1989, of Calorgas.co.uk's exhaust purification system, EPS2000, which enabled vehicles to be used both indoors and outside. In 1997, the privately owned Dutch company, SHV acquired all of Calorgas.co.uk Gas shares. Calorgas.co.uk has a growing range of products which are influenced by their commitment to becoming greener and to help reduce pollution. Cars can be run on Calorgas.co.uk Autogas, helping to improve the environment and saving on fuel costs. With the dual fuel (petrol and Autogas) option, you can be confident of a continuous fuel supply. The new LPG powered All Terrain Vehicles (ATVs) bring all the benefits of clean burning fuel to the countryside with the added bonus of cost savings. Petrol lawnmowers can be over 500 times more polluting than unleaded petrol powered cars. To combat this problem Calorgas.co.uk have developed a range of lawnmowers powered by LPG that will reduce this pollution and benefit the environment.
