Who Needs a CP44 Gas Safety Certificate?
A CP44 gas safety certificate is essential for anyone operating a mobile catering business that uses LPG or gas-powered equipment. This includes food vans, trailers, market stalls, and pop-up catering units serving hot food or drinks. Whether you are trading regularly or attending occasional events, compliance with gas safety regulations is a legal requirement.
Local authorities, event organisers, and insurers will often request a valid CP44 certificate before allowing you to trade. It confirms that your gas system has been professionally inspected and is safe to use, helping to protect both your business and your customers.

What Does a Mobile Catering Gas Inspection Include?
What does a mobile catering gas inspection include, and why is it so important for your setup? A professional inspection involves a full check of your LPG system, ensuring all appliances, pipework, and connections are safe, secure, and operating correctly. Engineers will also test for leaks and confirm adequate ventilation within the unit.
The inspection also covers regulators, safety devices, and emergency shut-off systems to ensure everything meets current standards. Any faults or risks will be identified and explained, allowing you to take action quickly and keep your mobile catering business safe, compliant, and ready to trade.

LPG Gas Systems for Vans, Trailers and Food Trucks
LPG gas systems are widely used in mobile catering vans, trailers, and food trucks due to their flexibility, efficiency, and reliability. These systems power essential cooking equipment such as fryers, grills, and ovens, allowing you to operate in a variety of locations without relying on mains gas. A properly installed LPG system ensures consistent performance while maintaining safety in a compact working environment.
However, because LPG is stored under pressure and used in confined spaces, it is vital that systems are correctly installed and regularly inspected. At Canary Gas, we ensure all pipework, regulators, and appliances meet current safety standards, helping you operate with confidence while protecting your staff, customers, and business reputation.
