About Fastcalgas

Fastcalgas is a brand new service from Martek Marine Ltd to allow you to easily buy calibration gas online 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, removing many of the delays caused by companies operating in different time zones.

All you have to do is select the calibration gas you require from a wide range available, then choose the country where you need it delivering to and you will be given one clear price including delivery. You will then have a pro-forma invoice emailed directly to you to pay by bank transfer and shortly there will be the option to pay securely online by credit card.

By removing the need for quotation requests and providing the facility to pay by credit card, the whole process is streamlined meaning you have the ability to save valuable time in getting the order shipped out to meet your vessel.

Do you have a gas problem?

Your ships need to operate safely and you need to be alerted to any dangerous flammable, toxic or ashyxiant gas leaks. To be sure of this your gas detection equipment needs to be proven to be operating correctly and accurately. To test and calibrate your gas detection equipment you need certified calibration gas available on-board your vessels when you need it and that's always been the problem!

The ability to source calibration gas simply, cost effectively and in a timely manner has always been a challenge for shipping companies. You may have some suppliers who can supply you effectively in certain major ports but who can't offer you the same level of service in other ports. Calibration gas is a hazardous cargo and without the whole process being looked after by an expert your precious time is wasted trying to raise paperwork and freight forwarders.

Your calibration gases get to the airport on time, this is where the service ends and you and your agent are left desperately trying to clear your goods at the airport. All of this means wasted time for you and delays to your consignment, or worse still your gas never meet your vessel. You have better things to do than chase cylinders of gas all over the world. You need to be able to order calibration gas safe in the knowledge that all of the hassle will be taken away from you and that the gas will arrive in time to meet the vessel, wherever in the world that may be.

If this was not bad enough you either need to administer the stock control of large, heavy and dangerous cylinders through rental schemes or encounter a nasty surprise when the final hazardous cargo invoices arrive.
