Our range of high quality Powder fire extinguishers are CE marked and British Standard certified. They are for use on Class A , B and C fires. These are fire fueled by solid material such as coal, wood, paper, straw etc (Class A), by flammable liquids such as fats, solvents, paints etc (Class B) and for fires fuelled by gases such as methane, propane, natrural gases etc (Class C).

Powder fire extinguishers have been designed to tackle a multitude of fires. The powder media, although messy, is highly effective at dampening flames and fighting liquid fuelled flames.  The residue can be harmful to electrical equipment and is not ideal for use in small, uncirculated areas.

 

Again, but in a different form, powder blocks the fuel from feeding off oxygen particles in the air and creates a thick residue that does not allow the covered fuel to re-ignite.
