Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Extinguishers are treated as hazardous waste because they are pressurised and may contain chemicals. If not disposed of correctly, they can present risks to people and the environment.

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

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