The Kitchen Risk Profile

Every service is a
fire waiting to happen

Commercial kitchens are statistically the highest-risk indoor environment for fire in the UK. The combination of high-temperature cooking oil, open gas flames, pressurised LPG, industrial electrical equipment and fast-paced working conditions creates a perfect storm of fire risk — every single shift.

A deep fat fryer fire can flash from ignition to fully involved in under 30 seconds. Extraction ducting coated with grease can spread fire across an entire kitchen in moments. Once a cooking oil fire takes hold, the wrong extinguisher can cause a fireball that makes the situation catastrophically worse.

The Fire Safety Stick is Class F rated — specifically designed for the fire class that kills commercial kitchens — and covers every other class you face, from electrical faults to gas and packaging fires.

The Wrong Extinguisher Makes It Worse

Using water or foam on a burning oil fire causes a violent steam explosion — projecting burning oil across the kitchen. CO₂ on a hot fat fire creates dangerous pressure differentials. The Fire Safety Stick's dry aerosol agent is specifically formulated for Class F fires and will not cause a secondary incident.

Deep Fat Fryers & Chip Pans
The single largest cause of commercial kitchen fires. Cooking oil overheats, reaches auto-ignition point and produces a Class F fire that requires a specifically rated suppressant to extinguish safely.
Gas Ranges & Catering Burners
Commercial gas ranges, wok burners and LPG cylinders present continuous Class C risk. A hose failure, regulator fault or flame-out with ongoing gas flow can escalate instantly.
Industrial Electrical Equipment
Commercial ovens, combination steamers, industrial mixers, extraction systems and refrigeration units — all drawing significant current. Electrical fires are Class E, rated to 100,000 volts.
Food Factory Machinery
Industrial food production introduces oil-lubricated machinery, conveyor systems, heated sealing equipment and electrical drives — creating Class B, E and A fire risks across production lines.
Your Environment

Every kitchen. Every
service. Every station.

From a single restaurant pass to a multi-site catering operation — the Fire Safety Stick belongs at every cooking station, in every vehicle and on every production line.

Restaurants & Bistros
Full-service kitchens run gas ranges, fryers, combination ovens and high-draw electrical equipment through every service. Position one at every station — especially the fryer line.
Class F Critical
Pub Kitchens & Gastro Pubs
High-volume fryer use, busy bar operations with open spirits and tight kitchen spaces make pub kitchens one of the most demanding fire risk environments in hospitality.
Classes B, C, E, F
Catering Companies & Events
Mobile catering introduces LPG gas, generator electrics, vehicle risks and outdoor operation far from fire service response. The Fire Safety Stick is your only first line of defence.
LPG & Generator Risk
Food Factories & Production
Industrial production lines with oil-lubricated machinery, heated packaging equipment, conveyor motors and high-draw electrical systems require Class B and E coverage across every station.
Industrial Machinery
Hotels & Banqueting
Large-scale banqueting operations run multiple fryers, gas ranges and heated trolleys simultaneously. A single incident during a large event has the potential to be catastrophic.
High Volume Service
Dark Kitchens & Delivery
High-throughput delivery kitchens with continuous fryer operation, minimal staffing and tight margins have no room for a kitchen fire — or a shutdown caused by the wrong extinguisher.
Zero Downtime Critical
The Kitchen Fire Class

Class F — the fire
that closes kitchens

CLASS F
Cooking Oil & Fat Fires
Cooking oil reaches auto-ignition at around 340°C. Commercial fryers regularly operate above 180°C. The margin for error is measured in seconds.
Deep Fat Fryers — The No.1 Kitchen Risk
Commercial fryers contain large volumes of oil at extreme temperature. Auto-ignition produces a fast-spreading, grease-fed fire that requires a Class F rated agent to suppress. The Fire Safety Stick is Class F rated for exactly this scenario.
Wok Stations & Solid-Top Ranges
High-heat wok cooking with cooking oil at extreme temperatures, combined with open gas burners directly beneath, creates a dangerous combination that requires the right first-response suppressant.
Extraction Ducting — The Hidden Spreader
Grease-coated extraction ducting above fryers and ranges is one of the most overlooked fire risks in commercial kitchens. A duct fire can spread to the entire kitchen structure in minutes. Early suppression at the source is essential.
Never Use Water, Foam or CO₂ on Class F
Water on a burning oil fire causes a violent steam explosion. Foam can cause the same reaction. CO₂ can destabilise the burning oil surface. The wrong extinguisher makes a Class F fire dramatically worse — the Fire Safety Stick is specifically rated and safe.
Fire Classifications

Every class in a
commercial kitchen. Covered.

Commercial kitchens present all five fire classes. Most traditional extinguishers cover two or three. The Fire Safety Stick covers them all — in one compact device.

Class A
Solid Combustibles
Cardboard packaging, wooden surfaces, paper, disposable products, linen and uniforms
Class B
Flammable Liquids
Cleaning solvents, cooking spirits, alcohol, lubricating oils for food machinery
Class C
Flammable Gases
Natural gas, LPG catering cylinders, propane — all commercial cooking gas supplies
Class E
Electrical Equipment
Industrial ovens, mixers, combination steamers, extraction fans, refrigeration
100,000 Volts Rated
Class F
Cooking Oils & Fats
Deep fat fryers, chip pans, wok stations, solid-top ranges, extraction ducting
No.1 Kitchen Risk
The Solution

Compact. Ready. Back
in service fast.

01
Zero Residue — No Kitchen Shutdown
Powder extinguishers contaminate entire kitchen surfaces, equipment, food preparation areas and open food. After a powder discharge, a kitchen is typically out of service for hours or days of deep cleaning. The Fire Safety Stick leaves zero residue — your kitchen can return to service as soon as the fire is out.
02
Mounts at Every Station
At 215g and compact enough to mount on a single bracket, you can position a Fire Safety Stick at the fryer line, on the pass, in every vehicle and at every production station. First-response suppression exactly where the risk is — not across the kitchen at a wall-mounted cylinder.
03
No Annual Servicing — No Engineer Calls
Traditional wet chemical extinguishers require annual inspection and periodic refill. Across a multi-site catering operation this is a significant ongoing cost and compliance burden. The Fire Safety Stick has a 15-year maintenance-free life — no call-outs, no certificates to chase, no cost.
04
UKCA & CE Certified
Independently certified to UKCA and CE standards. Meets the requirements of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 for commercial premises. Suitable for inclusion in your fire risk assessment as appropriate fire-fighting equipment for the identified fire classes.

Common Questions

Everything you need
to know

Yes. The Fire Safety Stick is Class F rated, which covers cooking oil and fat fires including deep fat fryers, chip pans and wok stations. Class F fires are the leading cause of commercial kitchen fires in the UK. The Fire Safety Stick provides effective first-response suppression for early-stage fryer fires — giving kitchen staff the critical seconds to control the situation before it escalates. Never use water, foam or CO₂ on a cooking oil fire.
Yes. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all commercial premises must carry out a fire risk assessment and provide appropriate fire-fighting equipment for the identified risks. Commercial kitchens must have extinguishers rated for the specific fire classes present — including Class F for cooking oil fires. Failure to comply can result in prosecution, fines and revocation of operating licences. The Fire Safety Stick is UKCA and CE certified and appropriate for inclusion in your fire risk assessment.
Yes. The Fire Safety Stick leaves zero residue after use. Unlike powder extinguishers — which contaminate entire kitchen surfaces, equipment and food preparation areas — the dry aerosol agent disperses cleanly with no chemical contamination. This means a significantly faster return to service with no requirement to dispose of contaminated food, deep-clean equipment or close the kitchen.
Yes. The Fire Safety Stick covers Class C flammable gas fires, including natural gas and LPG. Commercial gas ranges, wok burners and catering gas cylinder fires all fall under Class C. It also covers Class B flammable liquid fires such as cooking spirits, cleaning solvents and food machinery lubricants.
No. The Fire Safety Stick has a 15-year maintenance-free life with no annual inspection requirements, no engineer visits and no ongoing service costs. This makes it particularly cost-effective for operators with multiple kitchen stations or sites. Traditional wet chemical extinguishers require annual inspection and periodic refill — a significant compliance burden for multi-site operators.
Absolutely. At 215g and compact enough for any vehicle locker or mounting bracket, the Fire Safety Stick is ideal for mobile catering units, food trucks and event catering vehicles. It covers LPG gas fires (Class C), electrical generator faults (Class E), cooking oil fires (Class F) and vehicle engine fires (Class B). For mobile operators far from fire service response, it is the most versatile first-response option available.

A kitchen fire waits for no one.

Position the Fire Safety Stick at every fryer station, every gas range and every production line. Zero residue. Back in service fast. 15 years, no servicing.
