The importance of fire extinguisher signs


As an employer, you are responsible for the fire safety procedures and practices on your premises. This includes having sufficient fire extinguishers installed, commissioned and displaying adequate signage. Failing to meet fire safety requirements can lead to harsh penalties.

In the event of a fire, it is vital that fire extinguisher signs show people clearly where fire extinguishers are located and the correct use of each type. In this way, they will know which to use, according to the nature of the fire. Locating this apparatus quickly can save lives and reduce the chances of serious injuries.

Long-term employees should have fire safety training to educate them on the uses of different fire extinguishers. For them, the fire extinguisher safety signs serve as a reminder of what to use. In contrast, customers, temporary staff and visitors to the premises may not be familiar with the wide range of fire extinguishers and their various applications. As such, your fire extinguisher signage may be the only information they have to go on when deciding how to act in the event of a fire.

Where to use Fire Safety Signage


Fire extinguisher signs should be used as a core component of your commitment to health and safety in the workplace. These signs aim to instruct and inform and should be fixed in visible locations near equipment. You must also have signage to highlight escape routes.

All signage for fire extinguisher safety must be clear, relevant to the area, and highly visible. Safety regulations require that suitable fire extinguishers are positioned close to potential fire hazards. But the equipment is only useful if people are aware that it is available at the point when it is needed. It is essential that extinguishers can be located and accessed in an instant. You can achieve this through clear signage for every piece of fire safety equipment.

Make sure that a sign for fire extinguisher usage is placed close to the extinguisher and in a position that offers maximum visibility for everyone who uses the building. For wall-mounted extinguishers, signage should also be fixed to the wall. For freestanding equipment, the sign for fire extinguisher use should be attached to the fire extinguisher stand. If the stand is moved, the instructions to identify the type of extinguisher and how it should be used are not lost.

Fire Extinguisher signage: finding the right sign for you


We have a diverse range of fire extinguisher signs, which include simple signs to highlight the location of a fire extinguisher, as well as signs that provide instructions on how they should be used. We also supply signs that outline the different types of fire extinguishing equipment and their content, such as:



Among our most popular products are our Know Your Fire Extinguisher Colour Code Signs, which are ideal for informing visitors and customers about the correct usage for each type of fire extinguisher. The signs feature 'for use on' and 'do not use on' sections with pictograms and text for quick and easy-to-digest advice during emergencies.

Our specialist signage includes photoluminescent fire extinguisher signs, which can be used in premises where light levels are often low, such as clubs and cinemas. Nite-glo signs ensure informative advice is available even when there has been a power failure. When the room is lit, the information on the sign appears in white. When the light source is removed, the sign starts to glow. These PSPA Class B placards stay illuminated for more than six hours after being activated by a quality light. They are compliant with British Standard requirements and are available in a number of sizes and in a range of materials.

Our standard signs are ideal for offices, warehouses and factory environments. We also offer multi-pack fire extinguisher signs, which are suitable for use in large premises, where a high number of signs are required.

Our 'deluxe' range of signs comes in a choice of high-quality materials and fixings for use in customer-facing establishments such as restaurants, hotels, high-end shops or in plusher office environments. Opt for signs such as the Deluxe CO2 Fire Extinguisher Instruction Sign where you need signage to complement a more luxurious setting.
