Frequently asked questions
What fires does a Type B extinguisher handle?
Type B extinguishers tackle Class B fires—flammable liquids (petrol, oils, solvents) and gases. They are not suitable for electrical fires or combustible metal fires.
How do I position a Type B extinguisher sign correctly?
Install it directly above or beside the extinguisher unit. The red panel must be unobstructed and visible from the main approach route to meet AS 1319 and ensure staff find it without hesitation.
Is polypropylene durable enough for a workshop environment?
Polypropylene is UV-stable and water-resistant, suitable for sheltered workshops. For areas with chemical splash, oil spray, or heavy machinery vibration, colorbond offers superior durability.
Can I add mounting holes to the sign?
Yes. Four-corner pre-drilled holes are available as an optional extra. The configurator shows the current surcharge for the selected material and size before checkout.
Do you supply signs for multi-building sites?
Absolutely. Trade accounts receive volume pricing for consistent orders across multiple locations. We handle bulk orders and can coordinate delivery to different site addresses.
