Description

Hampshire County Council (HCC) is looking to establish a framework agreement for the supply, installation, training, and disposal of P50 fire extinguishers, including the disposal of traditional steel extinguishers. This framework will primarily support the estates of Hampshire County Council and Hampshire and Isle of Wight Fire & Rescue Services, but will also be available for use by other contracting authorities. These may include local authorities across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight, as well as schools, academies, colleges, and third sector organisations operating within the region. Traditional steel fire extinguishers have long been the standard means of first response fire protection. However, these extinguishers require regular servicing by certified engineers, involve on-going maintenance costs, and contribute to environmental waste at the end of their service life due to their steel construction and pressurised contents. The P50 extinguisher range offers a more cost-effective alternative, manufactured from composite materials that are corrosion-resistant, require no discharge testing or refilling for up to 10 years, and can be visually inspected by trained staff on-site. This significantly reduces maintenance costs, environmental impact and operational disruptions. Through this framework, the Authority aims to enhance efficiency, sustainability, and long-term cost-effectiveness across its estate and those of other partner organisations.
