Why this sign works
Clear safe/not-safe guidance
Shows at a glance that foam extinguishers are rated for wood, paper, textile and flammable liquid fires, and marked against live electrical equipment and metal fires.
Fixing to suit the surface
Self-adhesive backing, drill holes, or a channel on vinyl composite, for mounting to walls, posts or bars.
Recognised fire safety colours
Red and white signage that follows current UK and EU conventions for firefighting equipment.
Built for indoors or out
Vinyl composite and photoluminescent PVC are both suitable for exterior mounting.
Overview
Foam Extinguisher Instructions Sign - Overview
This sign pairs the foam extinguisher pictogram with a safe/not-safe use guide, so anyone reaching for the equipment in an emergency knows immediately what it is - and is not - for. It is made in two sizes and five materials to suit different walls, posts and viewing distances.

Frequently asked questions
What does the safe/not-safe guide on this sign actually cover?
What does the safe/not-safe guide on this sign actually cover?
It confirms the extinguisher is safe to use on wood, paper, textile and flammable liquid fires, and marks it against live electrical equipment and metal fires - the fire classes it is not designed for.
Does this sign replace the location or pictogram sign for the extinguisher?
Does this sign replace the location or pictogram sign for the extinguisher?
No - this is a use-instructions sign, not a location sign. Pair it with a fire point or extinguisher location sign if people also need pointing toward the equipment.
Which size is right for my extinguisher point?
Which size is right for my extinguisher point?
For a wall right next to the extinguisher, 150mm x 200mm is enough to read up close. Where people approach from further away, 200mm x 300mm keeps the guide legible from across the room.
How do I decide between the five materials?
How do I decide between the five materials?
Self-adhesive vinyl suits a smooth indoor wall and needs no drilling. Rigid or foam PVC are budget options for screw fixing indoors or out, and photoluminescent PVC is worth the extra cost on an escape route because it glows once the power is cut.
Does the fixing method change with the material?
Does the fixing method change with the material?
It does - self-adhesive vinyl carries its own high-tack backing, rigid PVC, foam PVC and photoluminescent PVC are drilled through, and vinyl composite also offers a horizontal or vertical channel for fixing to posts or bars.
Will this sign hold up outside?
Will this sign hold up outside?
Vinyl composite, foam PVC and rigid PVC are all rated for outdoor exposure. Keep self-adhesive vinyl for sheltered or indoor locations.
Is a foam extinguisher actually safe on flammable liquids?
Is a foam extinguisher actually safe on flammable liquids?
Yes - foam is one of the few agents rated for flammable liquid (Class B) fires as well as wood, paper and textile fires, which is why the sign marks it safe for both. It is not rated for live electrical equipment or metal fires.
