Portable Fire Extinguisher must be installed in all workplaces regardless of whether other fire protection measures are present. As an early response to a small fire, the successful performance of a Fire Extinguisher depends on appropriate placement, proper maintenance, and trained users (FCF Offers in-house or online training).
There are 6 main different types of Fire Extinguisher that can be installed in your business. We know the right type for your business as well as the quantity and location these extinguishers need to be placed. We also know the correct signage to display according to the Australian Standards. When it comes to fire safety, your business can't afford to get it wrong. Protect your staff and customers and ensure you are 100% Fire Safety Compliant.
There are different types of extinguishers; each designed to extinguish a specific class of fire. They are selected according to the potential fire hazard, the construction and occupancy of the building, and the asset to be protected. It is important to have the right type of extinguisher to fight the fire risk. Many premises have been installed with Water or Class A extinguisher. As the use of electronics has dramatically increased the risk of electrocution has also increased. Just because a Fire Extinguisher was in place originally, doesn't mean that it is suitable for your business now.
