There is an inevitable wastage due to dispensing Liquid Nitrogen which contributes to the deficit shown above (-HKD$36045.5).
Due to the deficit, we would like to charge users a wastage charge from next month onwards on proportional to the volume of liquid nitrogen purchased.
There will be an extra HKD$2.86 per Litre of Liquid Nitrogen purchased between January and July 2022. For example, if you have ordered 100L liquid nitrogen, you need to pay extra HKD$ 286.
The new Liquid Nitrogen purchasing charge will be increased to $12.86 with effective date on 1st August.
