Primus Gas & Gas Canisters

Choose the right gas canister for your adventure

Having access to reliable fuel makes all the difference when cooking outdoors. A gas canister suited to your needs ensures you get maximum performance from your camping stove or outdoor cooker.

Primus offers gas canisters in various sizes and gas blends, optimised for different temperatures and uses. With the right gas choice, you can cook efficiently whether you're in summer heat or freezing winter conditions.

Gas Canisters for Camping Stoves – Designed for All Conditions

Our gas canisters are engineered to deliver consistent, efficient combustion across temperatures and environments. We offer multiple options to suit different conditions and needs.

Power Gas an all-round propane/isobutane mix for spring to autumn use. Provides stable combustion and reliable performance in varying temperatures.

Summer Gas optimised for 15°C to 40°C, delivering peak combustion efficiency during summer months. Reduces fuel consumption while maximising heat output.

Winter Gas formulated for cold conditions down to -22°C. The blend ensures efficient vaporisation in low temperatures for dependable winter operation.

How much gas do you need for your trip?

It's important to plan your fuel requirements for your journey. Gas consumption is affected by factors like temperature, wind, and how long you plan to be outdoors.

Our gas canisters come in 100 g, 230 g, and 450 g sizes, so you can adjust the quantity based on the length of your trip.

Tips for Safe Handling and Storage:

• Store gas canisters in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
• Always check connections and valves before use to prevent gas leaks.
• In cold temperatures, keep the canister in a jacket pocket or sleeping bag before use to improve vaporisation.

When the canister is empty, handle it responsibly. Ensure the container is completely empty before recycling according to local guidelines. Our gas canisters are made of metal and can be recycled at most recycling centres.

Buying Gas Online – What to Consider

When ordering gas online, it’s essential to choose a canister compatible with your camping stove and needs. The size of the gas canister determines how long you can use your stove before refuelling, while different gas blends perform best under specific temperatures and altitudes.

Selecting the right gas for each situation ensures optimal performance and fuel efficiency. An all-round gas like Power Gas is ideal for most adventures, whereas Winter Gas is formulated for cold weather, maintaining better pressure in low temperatures. For hot conditions, Summer Gas performs best, as it’s optimised for higher temperatures and minimises unnecessary fuel consumption.

Primus offers gas in multiple sizes and blends, so you can find the perfect solution for your outdoor activities.
