Fire extinguisher hire - if you are organising an event such as a regional show, concert or festival, exhibition, local fair, trade show or similar, where the need for short-term protection of staff and the public is required, may be a better option for you than purchasing the equipment outright. You can hire fire extinguishers and other fire equipment from us that will assist you in complying with fire regulations and help to ensure that your event is held in as safe an environment as is possible for everyone involved.
Whether your event is indoor or outdoor, contact us for professional advice. All quotes are FREE and an emergency number can be provided for assistance if required.
Some events that we have provided fire extinguisher hire for, include:
- The National Urdd Eisteddfod 2017 in Bridgend,
- Coldplay's concerts on behalf of their concert promoters,
- Velothon Wales
- Abergavenny Food Festival

If you are holding a public charitable/fundraising event within an area that we are able to cover and are interested in fire extinguisher hire and related fire protection equipment, we will do our utmost to provide assistance at the lowest possible cost. Please contact us to discuss your event.
If you think any of our fire products and/or services would be of use to you, and would help make your festival, event, trade show or any other short term or temporary situation, a safer place by protecting people and assets, don't hesitate to contact us for more information.
Please take advantage of our Fire Safety Advice pages for useful information on fire extinguishers and their uses and also for information on current fire regulations and links to useful government and other sites that will assist you in organising a safe and successful event.
We have provided a link to a very useful guide, which has been made available by GOV.UK, and which goes into a lot of detail around fire safety risk assessments, particularly for all employers, managers, organisers of events, occupiers, and owners of open air events and venues. It tells you what you have to do to comply with fire safety law, helps you to carry out a fire risk assessment and identify the general fire precautions you need to have in place.
The guide is intended for open air events, and venues, such as:
• theme parks,
• zoos,
• music concerts and festivals,
• sporting events, • race meetings,
• fairgrounds,
• street festivals,
• religious festivals, • balloon festivals, • car-boot sales,
• county fairs, and
• other similar events
