Fire Safety Equipment for Workplaces

Fire safety requires more than simply buying an extinguisher.

A workplace may need several types of equipment depending on:

  • Activities carried out
  • Materials stored
  • Electrical equipment
  • Flammable liquids
  • Kitchen operations
  • Building size
  • Number of occupants
  • Emergency procedures

Different areas within the same facility may also require different fire-safety equipment.

For example, an office, workshop, warehouse and kitchen may not have the same fire risks.

Fire Extinguishers in Kenya

Fire extinguishers are an important part of workplace emergency preparedness.

However, different extinguishing agents are intended for different fire hazards.

Common extinguisher options include:

  • CO₂ extinguishers
  • Dry powder extinguishers
  • Water extinguishers
  • Foam extinguishers

Always check the rating and manufacturer information for the exact extinguisher.

CO₂ Fire Extinguishers

CO₂ extinguishers are commonly selected for suitable fire hazards involving energized electrical equipment and some flammable liquids.

Possible locations may include:

  • Offices
  • Server rooms
  • Electrical areas
  • Laboratories
  • Workshops
  • Equipment rooms

The exact extinguisher should still be matched to the identified fire risk.

Do not rely only on the words “CO₂ extinguisher.”

Check the product rating and workplace fire assessment.

Dry Powder Fire Extinguishers

Dry powder extinguishers are commonly used in a range of workplace and industrial environments.

They may be considered for suitable:

  • Workshops
  • Construction sites
  • Warehouses
  • Industrial areas
  • Vehicle operations
  • Outdoor work areas

However, dry powder extinguishers are available with different ratings.

Therefore, confirm the exact extinguisher before use.

Water Fire Extinguishers

Water extinguishers are intended for suitable ordinary combustible materials such as:

  • Paper
  • Wood
  • Cloth
  • Selected solid materials

They should not be used on energized electrical equipment.

Always confirm that the extinguisher is appropriate for the fire hazard before use.

Foam Fire Extinguishers

Selected foam extinguishers may be suitable for ordinary combustible materials and certain flammable-liquid hazards.

Possible applications may include:

  • Commercial premises
  • Warehouses
  • Workshops
  • Industrial facilities

The exact rating determines where the extinguisher can be used.

Choosing the Correct Fire Extinguisher

Do not choose an extinguisher based only on price or size.

Start with the hazard.

Use this selection process:

Fire Risk → Extinguisher Type → Rating → Capacity → Location → Inspection

1. Identify the Fire Hazard

Determine what could burn.

Examples may include:

  • Paper
  • Wood
  • Textiles
  • Electrical equipment
  • Flammable liquids
  • Fuels
  • Machinery
  • Workplace materials

2. Choose the Extinguisher Type

Match the extinguisher to the identified hazard.

3. Check the Rating

Review the exact extinguisher marking and manufacturer information.

4. Select the Capacity

The required capacity depends on the workplace and fire-safety assessment.

5. Plan the Location

Extinguishers should be positioned according to the workplace fire-safety arrangement.

6. Maintain the Equipment

Fire extinguishers require routine checks and servicing according to applicable requirements and manufacturer guidance.

Fire Blankets in Kenya

Fire blankets provide another form of emergency fire-safety equipment.

They may be used in suitable locations such as:

  • Kitchens
  • Food preparation areas
  • Laboratories
  • Workshops
  • Institutional facilities

Always follow the instructions provided with the exact fire blanket.

A fire blanket does not replace the need for other suitable fire-safety equipment.

Fire Hose Reels

Fire hose reels can form part of a building’s fire-protection system.

They may be found in:

  • Commercial buildings
  • Factories
  • Warehouses
  • Institutions
  • Industrial facilities
  • Large premises

The installation and use of a hose reel should match the building’s fire-safety system and applicable requirements.

Browse available fire hose reel products in this category for current specifications.

Fire Safety Signs & Tags

Fire-safety signs help workers, visitors and emergency teams identify important equipment and emergency information.

These may include signs for:

  • Fire extinguishers
  • Fire hose reels
  • Emergency equipment
  • Fire points
  • Evacuation routes
  • Safety instructions

Good signage should be visible and positioned where it supports the workplace emergency plan.

Fire Safety for Offices

Offices may contain:

  • Electrical equipment
  • Computers
  • Paper
  • Furniture
  • Kitchens
  • Storage areas

A suitable office fire-safety plan may require different equipment for different areas.

For example, equipment around electrical installations may differ from equipment used in a general storage area.

Fire Safety for Factories

Factories can have several fire hazards within one facility.

These may include:

  • Electrical equipment
  • Machinery
  • Flammable liquids
  • Packaging
  • Production materials
  • Maintenance areas
  • Storage areas

Do not assume one extinguisher type is suitable for every department.

Conduct the fire-risk assessment by work area.

Fire Safety for Warehouses

Warehouses may contain:

  • Packaging
  • Pallets
  • Stored products
  • Electrical equipment
  • Forklifts
  • Battery-charging areas
  • Machinery

The correct fire-safety equipment depends on the materials stored and operations performed.

Large warehouses may also require several fire-safety products as part of a wider emergency system.

Fire Safety for Construction Sites

Construction sites can contain temporary and changing fire hazards.

These may include:

  • Electrical equipment
  • Fuel
  • Hot work
  • Welding
  • Cutting
  • Temporary structures
  • Machinery
  • Stored materials

Fire-safety arrangements should therefore be reviewed as the project changes.

Fire Safety for Schools & Institutions

Schools, universities and institutions may require fire-safety equipment across:

  • Classrooms
  • Laboratories
  • Kitchens
  • Offices
  • Workshops
  • Stores
  • Accommodation areas

Different areas may require different equipment.

Clear emergency procedures and visible fire-safety equipment are also important.

Fire Safety for Hotels & Hospitality

Hotels and hospitality businesses may contain fire risks in:

  • Kitchens
  • Guest areas
  • Laundry rooms
  • Electrical rooms
  • Stores
  • Restaurants
  • Maintenance areas

Fire-safety equipment should be selected according to the hazard in each area.

Fire Safety for Hospitals & Healthcare Facilities

Healthcare facilities may require fire-safety equipment across:

  • Offices
  • Laboratories
  • Stores
  • Kitchens
  • Technical rooms
  • Maintenance areas
  • General building areas

Equipment selection should form part of the facility’s wider emergency-preparedness programme.

Fire Safety for Workshops

Workshops may involve:

  • Welding
  • Grinding
  • Electrical equipment
  • Fuels
  • Oils
  • Machinery
  • Flammable materials

Before purchasing fire extinguishers, identify the exact hazards present.

Workshops with several hazards may require more than one type of extinguisher.

Fire Safety for Vehicles

Some businesses also require emergency fire-safety equipment for vehicles.

Possible users include:

  • Company fleets
  • Delivery vehicles
  • Commercial vehicles
  • Construction vehicles
  • Service vehicles

The correct vehicle emergency equipment depends on the operating requirement and vehicle use.

Fire Safety Equipment Inspection

Fire-safety equipment should not simply be installed and forgotten.

Routine workplace checks may include:

  • Equipment location
  • Accessibility
  • Visible damage
  • Signage
  • Pressure indication where applicable
  • Seals and pins
  • Hose condition
  • Fire blanket condition
  • Inspection or service information

Detailed inspection and servicing should follow the requirements for the exact product and workplace.

Keep Fire Equipment Accessible

Emergency equipment should remain easy to access.

Avoid:

  • Blocking extinguishers with stock
  • Placing furniture in front of fire points
  • Hiding equipment behind machinery
  • Removing equipment without updating the fire plan
  • Allowing safety signs to become unreadable

Workers should know where emergency fire equipment is located.
