UK Fleet Fire Safety — Buses, Coaches & Transport

One Device.
Every Vehicle Protected.

The Fire Safety Stick gives your fleet instant, clean fire suppression — no training required, no maintenance for 15 years. UKCA certified.

The Risk

Vehicles catch fire.
Most aren't equipped to respond.

Traditional extinguishers are heavy, require annual servicing, and discharge messy powder. In a moving vehicle, that creates serious problems.

🔧

Annual Servicing Costs

Traditional extinguishers require yearly inspection and recertification. Multiply that across a fleet and the overhead escalates fast — with the risk of an out-of-date device when you need it most.

💨

Powder Damages Everything

A discharged powder extinguisher contaminates the vehicle interior, ruins electronics, and creates a significant clean-up operation. For an operator, that means a vehicle off the road and revenue lost.

Electrical Fires Need the Right Tool

Vehicle electrical fires — wiring faults, alternator failures, dashboard fires — require a suppression device rated for live electrical equipment. The Fire Safety Stick is rated for electrical fires up to 100,000 volts.

Compact enough for smaller vehicles where space is limited. Every vehicle in the fleet covered, not just the large coaches.

⚠️

Important Notice: Lithium-Ion Battery Fires

The Fire Safety Stick is not suitable for tackling lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery fires. Li-ion fires require specialist suppression equipment.

If you are in an environment where Li-ion batteries are present — such as EV charging areas, battery storage facilities, or warehouses — please ensure appropriate specialist fire suppression is in place alongside the Fire Safety Stick. In such cases, do not attempt to fight the fire yourself. Call 999 immediately. Only trained firefighters with specialist equipment are equipped to safely tackle Li-ion battery fires.
