Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste since they are pressurised and hold chemicals that could be harmful to both people and the environment. Companies in Keighley are required to use a licensed waste carrier for proper disposal and recycling.

Examples of risks include:

✔️ CO2 extinguishers can cause cold burns when discharged
