Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classified as hazardous waste because they are stored under pressure and often contain chemicals. If not disposed of correctly, they can create risks for both people and the environment.

Common risks include:

✔️ CO2 extinguishers release freezing gas which can cause burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate the lungs, eyes, and skin
✔️ Cylinders may rupture violently if dropped or damaged

Yes Waste ensures all extinguishers collected in Bridlington are handled safely and in full compliance with UK regulations.
