Story Time: How One Label Saved a Restaurant from Disaster

A restaurant owner in Delhi — let’s call him Rohan — installed top-tier fire extinguishers.
But during a grease fire, his staff used a Class-A extinguisher instead of Class-K.

Result?
The fire intensified.

He called us, panicked. Our team trained his staff in reading fire labels in under 30 minutes.
Two weeks later, another kitchen mishap — but this time?
Fire out in under 10 seconds.

One label. One choice. Total difference.

What Do Fire Labels Actually Mean?

Here’s how to crack the code like a fire safety expert:

1. Fire Class Letters (The Fire’s Personality)

  • A – Wood, paper, cloth (everyday combustibles)
  • B – Oil, petrol, paint (flammable liquids)
  • C – Electrical fires
  • D – Combustible metals
  • K – Kitchen oils (used in commercial kitchens)

Make sure your extinguisher matches the fire class.

2. NFPA Fire Diamond (The Label with the Numbers)

You’ll often see a colored diamond with numbers — it’s not decoration!

  • Red = Flammability (0–4)
  • Blue = Health risk (0–4)
  • Yellow = Reactivity (0–4)
  • White = Special info (e.g., water reactive)

The higher the number, the more dangerous the material.
Don’t ignore these — they’re your fire survival cheat codes.

3. Manufacturer Instructions (Yes, You Need to Read These)

Don’t treat the instructions like a phone warranty slip.
They’ll tell you:

  • How to hold and operate the extinguisher
  • Best environments for use
  • Refill and expiry information
  • Safety precautions
