Lighter, more compact, and much easier to use than hefty, old-school fire extinguishers. Fire Terminators from TransQuip are effective across the whole range of fire categories

(A, B, C, D, E & F) and also, Lithium-ion batteries. Used in phones, PCs, power tools, and vehicles, these devices are subject to thermal runaway, where the battery’s temperature can increase uncontrollably.

 












Mark Townshend from the TransQuip team says using Fire Terminator is a “no-brainer”.

 

The Fire Terminator hydrodynamic spray can deliver fire-stopping performance comparable to a 1.5-2kg dry-powder extinguisher, in fire categories that powder units can’t handle. Its cooling and encapsulation technology prevent re-ignition and leave no toxic residue, making it safer for people – even in confined spaces- and for our environment.

 

With a reach of 2-7 metres and a discharge time of 15 seconds, Fire Terminator is as easy to use as an air freshener. And cleanup is easy, since the substance inside is like wiping up water rather than being very messy like foam or powder extinguishers.

 

Mark says the Fire Terminator is tested to exacting global standards. As it is non-aerosol and non-toxic, no New Zealand fire certification is required for the sale or use of Fire Terminator.


The can has a 10-year shelf life, so no more yearly tagging & servicing costs or 3-5-year replacement costs, saving you money & time. Plus, you can use it and use it again. 


Mark says that, particularly for trucks, the can is a game changer; it effectively deals with fires and prevents potential damage to the driver and cab in the event of a crash, unlike a heavy, conventional extinguisher. “It truly is a one-size-fits-all solution for fires.” Super portable (Fire Terminator can be stored in a glove box), it’s also available with a bracket for vertical or horizontal mounting. 


Since its inception in 2012, the company that produces Fire Terminator, Fire Terminator International, has been steadfast in its commitment to safeguarding lives and property through cutting-edge, environmentally preferred fire-extinguishing solutions. 


The company is at the forefront of innovation, offering powerful, versatile firefighting technology tailored to combat a wide range of fires.
