Strip and Ship™

Save it all – time spent with on-site remediation of empty cylinders and the costs of hazardous waste disposal. Portagas™’ patented Strip & Ship™ cylinder return program (U.S. Patents RE 45,572 and No. 8,162,587) utilizes our Portagreen™ recyclable cylinders in an easy-to-use, three-step return process. This means you are not left with piles of empty cylinders, on-site cylinder remediation by your employees and no hazardous waste disposal costs. The Strip & Ship program is fully functional in the United States, Canada and Australia.
