We run a food production unit in Park Royal — what extinguishers do we need?

It depends on the fire classes on your line. Wet chemical covers Class F (cooking oils and fats) at fryers and cooking processes; CO2 covers live electrical around plant and packaging machinery; foam or water mist covers general combustibles in storage and production areas — and powder is usually wrong indoors because of visibility and inhalation on discharge. A BS 5306-8 survey maps types, sizes and travel distances for the whole unit.

P50 is a service-free composite extinguisher with a 10-year manufacturer guarantee. It still requires an annual visual inspection and a 10-year overhaul — but no annual service charge.

How many extinguishers do I need?

BS 5306-8 calculates extinguisher provision from floor area and class of fire risk. As a baseline, you need 2 × 13A water/foam per floor with travel distance ≤30 m.

Fire Extinguishers — Supply, Servicing & Testing in Brent

Fire Extinguishers in Brent: what’s different here

Park Royal — the largest area of Strategic Industrial Land in London — needs class-matched extinguisher cover: wet chemical at food-production kitchens, foam and CO2 around workshops and plant. Wembley Park is the opposite problem: a dense build-to-rent neighbourhood whose communal areas and event-day hospitality need straightforward, well-documented provision under Article 13 of the Fire Safety Order. If you’re comparing fire extinguishers in Brent, we survey to BS 5306-8 first — type, size and siting from the fire classes actually present — then supply, install and service.

Around 1,700 businesses and over 40,000 jobs sit on the Park Royal estate — food manufacturing, logistics, film and prop houses, vehicle repair — a single estate spanning almost every extinguisher fire class, from Class F in production kitchens to flammable liquids in workshops.
Brent runs borough-wide selective licensing in two designations (from August 2023 and April 2024, together covering every ward except Wembley Park), and an additional HMO licensing scheme for three- and four-person HMOs has applied since 2 February 2026. Licensed premises are expected to have appropriate fire precautions in place — the council’s pages carry the current conditions.
Wembley Park’s masterplan runs to about 8,500 homes — its developer describes it as on track to become the UK’s largest single build-to-rent neighbourhood — meaning dense managed-residential communal areas and an event-day hospitality economy, both carrying firefighting-equipment duties.
