Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they are pressurised and often contain chemicals. If not handled properly, they pose risks to both people and the environment.

Examples of risks include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can release freezing gas that causes burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate the skin, eyes, and lungs
✔️ Cylinders can rupture violently if damaged or dropped

Yes Waste ensures all extinguishers collected in Esher are managed safely and disposed of in compliance with UK hazardous waste regulations.
