Commercial Vehicles

Already installed in many company vehicles across the country, as well as a growing number of fire service and other emergency services vehicles, the Fire Safety Stick is an innovative, proven, compact and light fire extinguisher.

It is the perfect replacement for the typical 1kg or 2kg Dry powder fire extinguisher currently carried in the majority of company vehicles regardless of whether commercial vans or management cars. Just look at the comparison chart or watch the brief video below. Significant long-term savings can be made by changing over to the Fire Safety Stick in many ways.

Firstly, it needs no annual servicing unlike all pressurised extinguishers, thereby meaning no external profession fire technicians need to visit your premises. And has at least triple the life span of those traditional pressurised extinguishers. The Fire Safety Stick is not pressurised and so the regular inspections can be carried out by your own staff at a time (or place) to suit you. This also reduces your own admin time, and inconvenience.

How the Fire Safety Stick Saved Becky’s Lorry!

“Becky’s High-Stakes Drive: How a Quick-thinking Move and a Fire Safety Stick saved the day on the M6”

Becky was driving a fully loaded livestock lorry along the M6 with her friend Lucy in the passenger seat. Suddenly, they noticed another driver trying to get Becky’s attention by honking their horn. At that moment, Becky had no idea what the issue was with her vehicle; she suspected it might be a blown tyre. Prioritizing safety, she pulled over to a wide area of the M6 near Rugby Services, where she then noticed smoke coming from her wheels. As she climbed out of the cab, she spotted flames.

Recalling that there was a Fire Safety Stick in the side locker, she quickly handed it to Lucy, not having time to read the instructions. Becky then unhitched the trailer to prevent it from catching fire. Once Lucy ignited the Fire Safety Stick, Becky inserted it into one of the wheel’s holes and let it extinguish the flames. The Fire service was soon on the scene despite the Fire Safety Stick quickly extinguishing the fire and they gave Becky the all-clear to drive the tractor unit home. But not before they asked a few more questions about the Fire Safety Stick as they were so impressed just how effective it was! It’s worth remembering that if she had used a dry powder fire extinguisher, the residual damage from the powder would have likely prevented her from driving the lorry home and resulted in an extra bill!

Fortunately, at this stage, Becky had arranged for the trailer to be collected.

And for those travelling on the M6 that day, a huge relief since had the fire taken hold, the busy motorway would have been closed for some considerable time!

Lesson for us all – don’t waste valuable time! Although the Fire Safety Stick is very easy to use because it looks different to a traditional fire extinguisher, make sure you, your family or anyone else likely to need to use it, all read and understand the simple instruction guide straight away when you get the stick and not wait until a fire starts.

Becky could not be more thankful for having the Fire Safety Stick and has now added a Fire Safety Stick to her fleet of trucks. Acknowledging the size and weight of one of these Fire Safety Sticks and now knowing her Livelihood on transporting is safe for herself and her livestock.
