What We Check at a Laboratory
- Identify combustible materials, ignition sources and high-risk rooms.
- Select extinguisher type and capacity for the actual fire classes present.
- Keep equipment visible, accessible, correctly mounted and clearly signed.
- Maintain inspection records, refilling dates and staff training schedules.
- Review evacuation routes, emergency lighting and assembly arrangements.
Fire equipment must match the actual hazards. Capacity, quantity and placement should be finalized only after reviewing the site.
