FIRE SAFETY A multi-risk fire extinguisher solution


Britannia Fire conducted a health and safety audit to search for suitable alternatives to traditional fire protection measures, exploring solutions that would boost operational health and safety, reduce service and maintenance concerns and increase cost effectiveness. Then, the P50 was born. Britannia


Fire’s P50 composite fire extinguisher has a patent-protected design for corrosion resistance and low maintenance – it is a greener, lighter, safer and stronger solution to industrial fire safety issues. This cutting-edge extinguisher has a ten- year guarantee and can also be readily maintained by the owner with yearly inspections – removing the need for costly annual service engineer visits. After that, it can then be refurbished to serve for another ten years, reducing its overall carbon footprint. The P50 extinguisher is resistant to


drops, scratches and dents and meets the requirements for use on a variety of fires, including those involving common combustibles, flammable liquids and live electrical equipment. This eliminates the need for numerous fire extinguishers on site, therefore reducing costs, as well as the possibility of using the incorrect extinguisher for any given application, making it ideal for use in high-risk environments. The P50 patent was created by Roger


Carr, the founder of Britannia Fire – an industry-leading manufacturer of fire extinguishers. The extinguisher’s high- tech components (including HDPE and Aramid fibre) and production method are the key to its success. “When producing the P50 fire


extinguisher, we prioritised developing a new solution that increased operational health and safety, reduced service and maintenance costs and improved cost-effectiveness – all while improving its environmental impact,” explains Carr. Facility managers and health and


safety managers ultimately seek to identify a single solution to eliminate the confusion caused by the requirement for many types of fire extinguishers. Due to its durability, light weight, safety and cost-effectiveness, the P50 is a game-changer. If you are seeking solutions to
