Their  mission is to promote the safe use of paraffin being used in households after concerns about paraffin poisoning regarding energy safety were raised.

The Paraffin Safety Association of Southern Africa expanded its activities to address the negative consequences of domestic paraffin use, including burn injuries, township fires and the inhalation of toxic fumes.

Their mission is to -

• offer training and educational material to paraffin users though a network of partnerships – NGOs community groups, emergency and healthcare workers etc. It has trained master trainers who will train and provide educational material in all 11 official languages to these community partners
• it works with industry organisations to set safety standards and to have these made mandatory and to ensure that paraffin is sold in clearly marked, childproof containers
• be a  knowledge base about the domestic use of paraffin and its consequences by conducting incidence surveillance and research.
