Fire Extinguisher & Fire Department Barcode Labels

NFPA 10 requires a visual inspection of each portable fire extinguisher at least monthly and a full maintenance check by a qualified technician annually. The monthly inspection ensures the extinguisher is present, charged, and undamaged, while the annual service addresses internal components. Records must be maintained, and barcode labels make logging each inspection efficient and consistent.

OSHA standard 1910.157 requires recording the annual maintenance date and making it available for inspection. For monthly checks, OSHA often treats missing records as missed inspections. Scannable logs created by barcode labels ensure records are automatically maintained with each scan.

Fire extinguisher barcode labels are made from water- and abrasion-resistant materials, ensuring they remain adhered and scannable in damp, dusty, or outdoor environments. The materials are designed to last through multiple inspection cycles.

In-stock "FIRE EXTINGUISHER" labels are pre-printed with consecutive numbers and ship quickly. Custom labels allow you to add your organization’s name, a starting number, and a barcode or 2D code compatible with your asset system.

Each barcode connects an extinguisher to its record in inspection or asset software. Scanning the barcode during monthly inspections retrieves the unit’s location, type, and service history and records the new check. This process creates a continuous log, eliminating the need for handwritten records.
