Ultimate Wet Chemical Fire Extinguishers for Commercial Kitchens

In the realm of fire safety, particularly in commercial and industrial kitchen settings, the importance of having the right fire extinguisher cannot be overstated. Our collection of Wet Chemical Fire Extinguishers is meticulously designed to meet the unique demands of these environments.

Why Wet Chemical Fire Extinguishers?

Wet chemical fire extinguishers are essential in kitchens, as they are specifically formulated for Class F fires, which involve cooking oils and fats. These types of fires are prevalent in commercial kitchens and require a specialised approach for effective extinguishment. The wet chemical agent works by rapidly cooling the burning oil and then reacts to form a soap-like solution, sealing the surface and preventing re-ignition. This makes them not only effective but also a safer option for kitchen fire emergencies.

Additionally, these extinguishers are suitable for Class A fires, which involve solid combustibles like wood, paper, and textiles. This versatility makes them an invaluable tool in a wide range of fire emergency scenarios.
