The car fire extinguisher from Fire Protection Online is a compact version of the same powder extinguishers you'll find in most offices and stores. This handy 1kg powder fire extinguisher will extinguish the major types of fire associated with a normal car, van, caravan, or boat, namely Class A, B and C fires. Class A fires involve burning wood, paper or cloth, such as seating. Class B fires are flammable liquids, such as fuel or oil, while Class C fires involve gas. Our smart yet manageable car fire extinguisher will give you a first line of defence against fire, and is safe to use around electrical equipment.
Larger cars, trucks and vans should carry our 2kg powder fire extinguisher (the best value of all) or 2 litre foam fire extinguisher, suitable for use on Class A and B fires, but which must NOT be used near live electrical equipment.
Always Be Safe, Not Sorry
Always remember, however, to only tackle a fire that you can extinguish with a single extinguisher. If in any doubt, immediately move out of the vehicle to a safe distance, and call the Fire Brigade immediately.
