Fire Extinguisher Sign
Fire extinguisher signage is designed to indicate where fire extinguishers are located and to provide instructions on how to use them in case of a fire. Fire extinguisher symbols on these signs convey information about the types of fires the extinguishers can be used on. Also known as ‘Fire ID’ signs, they are essential for ensuring that people can find and use the correct extinguisher quickly and safely. They also inform users about which types of fires the extinguisher can be used on, helping to prevent misuse.
All our fire extinguisher signs are compliant with Health and Safety (Safety Signs and Signals) Regulations 1996 and ISO 7010 standards and are available for next day delivery across the UK.

What are fire extinguisher signs?
Fire extinguisher signs are informational signs placed with fire extinguishers. They highlight where the extinguishers are located and provide instructions on how to use them properly. Additionally, it is important to include fire blankets in fire safety signage to ensure all fire fighting equipment is easily identifiable. They also indicate what types of fires the extinguisher can be used on.
Where should fire extinguisher signs be located?
Fire extinguisher signs should be placed next to each fire extinguisher or on the stand on which the extinguishers sit. This ensures that anyone needing to use an extinguisher can easily find it and read the instructions quickly.
Are fire extinguisher signs required by law?
Yes, fire extinguisher signs are required by law as part of essential safety equipment to ensure compliance with fire safety regulations.
What are the different types of fire extinguisher signs?
Fire extinguisher signs are available for the different types of fire extinguishers you may be familiar with, such as Water, Foam, ABC Dry Powder, CO2 or Carbon Dioxide, and water fire extinguishers, as well as more specialist extinguishers such as Wet Chemical, L2 Powder, Alcohol Resistant Foam and Lithium Battery Fire Extinguishers.
Fire ID signs incorporate the ISO 7010 recognised symbol for a fire extinguisher, pictograms showing the class of fire it is safe to use on and the class of fire it should not be used, in addition to a coloured panel to quickly identify the extinguisher type.
