Fire extinguisher guidance chart
To provide you with a little guidance about which type of fire extinguisher you might require please refer to the table below, all fire extinguishers have the body colour of signal red, and at least 5% of the body must be colour coded in the pre-EN3 (BS 5423) colours. a good example is the Dry Powder extinguisher now red (BS-EN3) with the coloured band of blue which was the old (BS 5423) colour code to represent the dry powder.
