Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

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

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

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