The Right Extinguisher for Every Risk
Every workplace across North Queensland is required to have portable fire extinguishers on hand, regardless of what other fire protection systems are in place. As your first line of defence against a developing fire, an extinguisher only works when it's the right type, correctly placed, well maintained and used by someone who knows how to operate it.
Flaming North Fire Protection supplies and services a full range of extinguishers matched to your specific fire risk, building layout and occupancy. Whether you're located in Townsville, Cairns or the Western Region, our team ensures every extinguisher on your site is compliant, accessible and ready when it matters most.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often do fire extinguishers need servicing in Australia?
In Australia, fire extinguishers must be visually inspected every 6 months and undergo a full service annually, in accordance with AS 1851. Regular servicing ensures extinguishers remain in proper working condition, pressurised correctly and ready for use should a fire emergency occur in the workplace.
What type of fire extinguisher should be used in workplaces?
The right extinguisher depends on the specific fire risk present, as different types are designed to fight different classes of fire. Extinguishers are selected based on the building's construction, occupancy and potential hazards, ensuring the correct response without causing further damage or escalating the fire.
Where should fire blankets be installed?
Fire blankets should be installed in areas with a higher risk of Class F fires, such as commercial and domestic kitchens. They should be mounted in an easily accessible, visible location near the cooking area, but not directly above the stove where reaching it could be hazardous.

Fire Blankets for Fast, Reliable Response
Fire blankets are essential in commercial kitchens and any workspace where oils, fats or flammable liquids create a risk of Class F fires. Working by cutting off a fire's oxygen supply, a blanket can smother flames completely or contain them until further action is taken. They're also effective for extinguishing clothing fires.
At Flaming North Fire Protection, we supply fire blankets manufactured to comply with AS/NZS 3504, giving businesses across North Queensland confidence in their kitchen and workplace safety.
Our team can advise on the right placement and quantity of blankets for your site, ensuring compliance and rapid response in an emergency.
