The Short Answer
Choosing between FastGas 670g and FastGas 2kg at wholesale isn’t a brand-loyalty question. Both are food-grade nitrous oxide brands sold into UK foodservice. The choice comes down to which size formats fit your kitchens, which documentation trail matches your buyer profile, and which supplier rhythm your procurement team can plan around.
This page is the brand-against-brand view. If you’ve already narrowed to a specific size — say 640g vs 666g — the size-specific compare pages answer that better. If you’re earlier in the decision, the brand procurement framework is the longer-form read.
FastGas 670g — Where It Wins
Smartwhip dominates the 640g segment and ships in Original and Silver variants on the UK wholesale side. Recognised brand, predictable lead times, the default for buyers who want the safest procurement story.
Three reasons procurement teams pick FastGas 670g:
- recognised UK brand
- consistent batch quality
- two 640g variants for cost-sensitive estates
Worth knowing before signing: 640g is its strongest size — larger formats are available but less common in UK foodservice.
The FastGas 670g hub — FastGas 670g wholesale — has the SKU depth, certification notes, and pallet planning patterns for the brand.
FastGas 2kg — Where It Wins

Three reasons procurement teams pick FastGas 2kg:
- recognised UK brand

- two 640g variants for cost-sensitive estates
Worth knowing before signing: 640g is its strongest size — larger formats are available but less common in UK foodservice.
The FastGas 2kg hub — FastGas 2kg wholesale — covers the variant landscape and documentation trail.

When To Pick Which
Pick FastGas 670g when the recognised UK brand matters more than anything else on the list. That’s usually the case for groups whose buyer is being asked to defend the choice in a tender, an audit, or a contract review.
Pick FastGas 2kg when recognised UK brand matches your operational pattern. That’s typically multi-site groups with mixed-format estates, distributors carrying a wide SKU shelf, or buyers running flavoured programmes.
If the answer is “we’d use both” — fine. Mixed-brand pallets are common at wholesale, and the qualification wizard captures multi-brand orders without friction.
Quote And Compliance
The qualification wizard captures brand, format, pallet quantity, delivery postcode, and business verification status. UK orders settle on 50% deposit / 50% on delivery against proforma. International orders run on 65/20/15 against shipping documents. Bank details are issued on the proforma invoice, never published on the site.
