Fire Risks in Agricultural Vehicles: A game-changing, rapid-response tool

Agricultural vehicles face a wide range of fire risks—from bearing and brake fires to overloaded battery terminals. These hazards can be challenging to address, especially when space constraints make it difficult to carry bulky extinguishers within easy reach. The consequences can be devastating: damaged machinery, lost crops, and significant financial losses. In fact, one rural insurer reported paying out an alarming £19 million in fire-related claims in 2019 alone.

Enter the Fire Safety Stick—a game-changing addition to your fire safety toolkit that offers a rapid, effective, first-line response to small, early-stage fires. Compact, lightweight, and versatile, it’s the ideal solution to reduce the risk of small fires spreading and causing further harm.

Why Choose the Fire Safety Stick?

Space-saving design: At just 216g or 365g, it’s small enough to hold in one hand and can be securely mounted within arm’s reach in your vehicle without causing an obstruction.
Versatile: Certified for fire classifications A, B, C, Electrical (up to 100,000V), and F, it takes the guesswork out of which extinguisher to use when every second counts in your response.
Unrivalled discharge time: Two models are available, with a minimum discharge time of either 50 or 100 seconds. Comparatively, a 1kg powder from start to finish is just 7 seconds.
Safe and clean: The Fire Safety Stick’s vapour-based suppression system is safe to breathe in confined spaces and leaves no corrosive or messy residue, sparing you extra cleanup or damage worries after discharge.
Effective in hard-to-reach areas: Its vapour can weave behind grilles, inside panelling, or underneath vehicles—places traditional extinguishers might struggle to reach.

For fires in confined spaces, the Fire Safety Stick can even be activated and left behind, continuing to repress the fire whilst occupants escape to safety, marshal backup resources, and await emergency services.

Plus, they’re built tough for rugged environments: drop them or knock them with no risk of accidental activation. Vibrations and temperature changes won’t affect their performance, and a regular visual inspection is all that’s needed to make sure they are ready for action when needed.
