Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they are pressurised containers that contain chemicals which can be harmful to health and the environment. Businesses in Normanton must use a licensed waste carrier for safe disposal and recycling.

Examples of risks include:

✔️ CO2 extinguishers can cause cold burns when discharged
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers may irritate the eyes, skin and lungs
✔️ Pressurised cylinders are highly dangerous if crushed or damaged

Working with Yes Waste ensures compliance with legislation and guarantees your extinguishers are recycled responsibly.
