Faber has produced more than 3 million cylinders specifically designed for NGV applications. Most of them are still in service after more than twenty years in more than forty countries all over the world.
Faber supplies its CNG cylinders with a wide range of neck threads, a choice of multicolour finish paints (or just primer painted), and mounted valves. Browse our NGV Steel Cylinders Catalogue to find the cylinders you need. For additional technical information you can logon at Faber's Database & Drawings . If you are interested in Faber Composite Cylinders go to NGV Composite Cylinders.

If you are involved in the NGV business (either within a motor company or in the after sale conversion of vehicles to CNG) and you are looking for more information please send a fax with your headed notepaper to Faber Sales Dept. (++39 0432 700332) .

Unfortunately we are not able to supply directly to the final user. The manufacturing of cylinders requires large production lots and therefore we are not able to quote for less than 200 pieces of same size cylinders. If you are a final user our sales department ( CNG@faber-italy.com ) will be happy to help you find out where you can purchase Faber's tanks.

Some important advice: prices for CNG cylinders can vary significantly depending on the cylinder type and manufacturer. Sometimes manufacturers and middle companies offer cylinders originally designed for industrial gases as cylinders for CNG use because of their lower price. This is not to be recommended. Faber CNG cylinders are designed and manufactured specifically for NGV use according to the specific requirements set down by International and Local Authorities for Compressed Natural Gas applications. This should not be forgotten it when you compare prices.

When you contact our sales department please keep in mind that:
- we do not issue price lists;
- our sales department and distributors will be glad to let you have a quotation for the types, the sizes (diameter and capacity) and the quantities you need;
- do not forget to mention the standard of the CNG cylinders you want to purchase. If you do not specify it we are not able to issue a quote (a guide to the regulations is available if you logon at Faber's Database & Drawings)
- we are able to offer and confirm orders for 200 or more cylinders of same type and size. Sometime the size of the order can be smaller as we try to optimise shipping and transport costs of full load container (20'). However distributors are able to provide you with smaller lots.
- we ship our CNG cylinders packed on pallets in 20' or 40' containers;
- our offers can be based on ex-works or CIF destination port terms;

For more than fifteen years Faber has been developing ultra-light fibre-reinforced cylinders for Natural Gas Vehicles.
Those cylinders are approved worldwide by all major safety Bodies and Authorities. Many well known vehicle manufacturers incorporate and install them as standard components under OEM agreements.
The steel liner of Type 2 Faber Composite Cylinders is by itself capable of withstanding a pressure which exceeds the actual filling pressure of the cylinder. This protects against the danger of bursting even in case of the total tearing of the fibre wrapping.
All the tests required by the strictest regulations have confirmed the total reliability of Faber composite cylinder.
Faber Type 2 Composite Cylinders are now available with E-glass Fibre Hoop Wrapping or with Carbon Fibre Hoop Wrapping.

Type 3 Composite Cylinders are also available from Faber.

We suggest you to refer to NGV Composite Cylinders Catalogue

Some important advice: prices for CNG cylinders can vary significantly depending on the cylinder. Composite cylinders are more expensive than steel cylinders and therefore they are mainly installed in OEM vehicles.
Faber CNG Composite Cylinders are designed in order to reduce the weight of the vehicle as much as possible at a cost acceptable to vehicles manufacturers.
