Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they are stored under pressure and may contain chemicals. If disposed of incorrectly, they can pose risks to people and the environment.

Risks include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can release freezing gas that causes cold burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate eyes, skin, and lungs
✔️ Cylinders can rupture if dropped or damaged

Yes Waste ensures all extinguishers collected in Ealing are managed safely and in accordance with UK hazardous waste legislation.
