not able to review as unused, and I hope I never have to use it!!!
It does look an attractive proposition compared to having to service standard extinguishers

"We were blown away with the opportunity to simplify safety through the installation of P50s across our estate. P50s are the next level of extinguisher; folding 2 extinguishers into one and removing extensive and expensive maintenance regimes. All while allowing us to improve asset management, simplify training and make it easier for a colleague to execute a potentially life savings action in the event of a fire."
From the conception through to project completion, the Safelincs team demonstrated outstanding professionalism, expertise, and commitment to delivering the highest standards. Their knowledge and understanding of the specific requirements of a busy healthcare environment gave us complete confidence throughout the process. The installation was carried out efficiently, with minimal disruption to hospital operations, and every member of the team was courteous, and highly professional. Their attention to detail, clear communication, and dedication to ensuring full compliance with fire safety regulations were exemplary.
The 2 main benefits to the change to P50 extinguishers are that (1) it represents an innovative and cost-effective solution compared to traditional extinguishers, and also (2) with its capability to extinguish multiple classes of fire there is no chance that the wrong extinguisher can be used. The change to P50 extinguishers has contributed a significant reduction of 22,000kg across the life span of the project to support the NHS carbon reduction plan and net zero commitment.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Safelincs to any organisation seeking a trusted, knowledgeable, and reliable fire safety partner. Safelincs have contributed to enhancing fire safety across Birmingham Women's and Children's Hospital, and we look forward to working with them again in the future. Thank you to the entire Safelincs team for a first-class service.
Worth the cost to save servicing costs over the next 10 years!
