Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Extinguishers are treated as hazardous waste because they are stored under pressure and often contain chemical contents. If not handled correctly, they can pose risks to people and the environment.

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

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