Why Fire Extinguishers Are Hazardous Waste

Fire extinguishers are classed as hazardous waste because they’re pressurised and often contain chemicals or gases that can be harmful if not handled properly. By using a licensed waste contractor, you can be confident that they’ll be collected, stored, and recycled safely..

Key risks include:
✔️ CO2 extinguishers releasing freezing gas that causes burns
✔️ Dry powder extinguishers producing fine dust that irritates airways
✔️ Cylinders that could explode if punctured or crushed
