ODS and SGG warning stickers
The following stickers are designed to help people identify cylinders and fire panels containing or connected to an ozone depleting substance or synthetic greenhouse gas.
Ozone protection cylinder sticker
Ozone protection fire panel sticker
These stickers are a great way to remind your staff or external contractors that only those holding an extinguishing agent handling licence are permitted to work on fire protection equipment containing or connected to a scheduled extinguishing agent. The discharge of a scheduled agent can result in a significant cost to fire protection companies and end users. For this reason, the Fire Protection Industry (ODS & SGG) Board (FPIB) highly recommends the use of these stickers. Both stickers include a QR code which once scanned using a mobile phone, will direct the user to the FPIB website.
These stickers can be ordered from the FPIB completely free of charge – we will even cover the postage fee.
To place an order, simply email us at [email protected] stating your company name, the address you want them sent to, which sticker you require (can be both) and the quantity you require for each.
