This page aims to provide
the reader with a brief overview of our products and service relating to
fire extinguishers.
Fire extinguishers are an essential first step in fighting fires.
According to the
Fire Extinguisher Survey by FETA (now the
FIA) and
IFEDA (requires
Adobe® Acrobat® Reader), 80% of all fires are successfully extinguished by fire
extinguishers.
However, in order to be effective, sites must be properly surveyed to
ensure that cover is adequate, suitable and sufficient.
BS 5306-8:2000 is the code of
practice used for the Selection and installation of portable fire
extinguishers.
Once the cover is there, it is also vital that it is properly
maintained. In this case,
BS 5306-3:2003 is the main standard applicable to the servicing of
portable fire extinguishers.
