Contempo: the perfect combination of fire safety and style

For many businesses, appearances are crucial to communicating luxury and heritage. Whether it’s a historic house or high-end retail store, adequate fire safety equipment must be installed and maintained to comply with UK regulations and help ensure the safety of customers and employees. But this doesn’t mean brands need to compromise on the aesthetic of the space.

Here, we discuss our exquisite Contempo fire extinguisher range and explain what makes it the perfect solution for style and fire safety.

What is Contempo?

Contempo is an exclusive range of fire extinguishers by Commander, which feature luxurious finishes to cater to environments where appearances are important. Traditionally, fire extinguishers are coloured bright red, which can pose a challenge when trying to maintain certain aesthetics. Contempo offers incredible fire ratings and high levels of performance while complimenting the finest interiors with a superb selection of finishes:

Antique Copper

Perfect for contemporary sites, Contempo Antique Copper fire extinguishers feature a stunning hand-finish that effortlessly communicates heritage and grandiosity. Whatever classes of fire your customers highlight as a risk for their business, Contempo has a suitable fire extinguisher for any setting.

Stainless Steel

A modern solution to ensuring style in fire safety equipment, Contempo Stainless Steel fire extinguishers offer a sleek appearance that can easily complement any number of luxury hotels, wedding venues and bars and restaurants. Your customers can choose from a wide range of models, including foam, CO2 and water fire extinguishers, with 9ltr units also available in Contempo Stainless Steel finishes.

Polished Gold

A truly breath-taking finish, Contempo Polished Gold fire extinguishers resonate luxury and are perfect for any environment where customers expect an exclusive or high-end service. With a wide selection of models, your customers can ensure their business is compliant with regulations while keeping their fine and carefully chosen interior designs intact.

Matching fire safety signs and stands

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRFSO) requires the responsible person to install and maintain adequate fire safety equipment signs, which in the case of fire extinguishers includes fire extinguisher ID signs to clearly show the fire extinguisher symbol, the type of fire extinguisher and the classes of fire it can and cannot be used on.

As a result, high-performance fire extinguishers are not the only products in the Contempo range. We also offer fire extinguisher ID signs in antique copper, stainless steel and polished gold finishes, helping your customers maintain stylistic continuity in every aspect of their fire safety equipment, while complying with the RRFSO and protecting lives.

Furthermore, British Standards require fire safety equipment to be protected from accidental damage or vandalism, and requires the use of fire extinguisher stands for increased stability and security. With Contempo, your customers can choose from a series of robust and stylishly designed Antique Copper, Stainless Steel and Polished Gold tubular stands, perfectly finishing off the Contempo set in luxurious fashion. These include both single and double stands, which can hold one or two Contempo fire extinguishers respectively. These stands also include a designated space for a matching fire extinguisher ID sign.

Contempo is the perfect solution for any customers who need to maintain a high-end aesthetic in their premises or business. To understand more technical information about this luxurious range, visit our dedicated Contempo page and download our data sheets today.
