Nelson Fire Protection is Nelson’s only IANZ-approved cylinder test station and is a member of the Cylinder Testing Laboratory Association (CTLA).


By using a CTLA member to have your cylinder tested, you receive the benefits of over 30 years of industry involvement.  Any CTLA member can access information and data from the resources held within the organisation’s heritage.


This means every test is done on-site, and your cylinder doesn’t have to be sent away, saving you time and money.
