  • Water fire extinguishers
  • Foam fire extinguishers

Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

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

Examples of potential hazards include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers can release freezing gas that causes burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate eyes, lungs, and skin
✔️ Cylinders can rupture or explode if damaged

Yes Waste manages fire extinguisher collections in Neath under strict safety procedures, ensuring full compliance with UK hazardous waste regulations.
