Fire Extinguishers

There are different ‘classes’ of fire, for which each extinguisher is designed to tackle. These classes are based on which fuel starts a fire. It’s the presence of these fuels within your business premises that will help determine which types of fire extinguisher you require and which location these will be positioned.

Each fire extinguisher is identified by a coloured band Red, Cream, Blue, Black, and Yellow

There are six classes of fire: Class A, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class F and ‘Electrical’.

•  Class A fires – combustible materials: caused by flammable solids, such as wood, paper, and fabric
•  Class B fires – flammable liquids: such as petrol, turpentine or paint
•  Class C fires – flammable gases: like hydrogen, butane or methane
•  Class D fires – combustible metals: chemicals such as magnesium, aluminium or potassium
•  Class F fires – cooking oils: typically a chip-pan fire
• Electrical fires – electrical equipment: once the electrical item is removed, the fire changes class
