Everyday combustible materials found in workplaces and commercial buildings.
Want to make managing fire protection at your Liverpool premises more straightforward?


At TristarFS, our focus is the P50 composite fire extinguisher range. We work with commercial and public sector organisations looking for an alternative to the traditional cycle of extinguisher servicing and replacement.
That focus is backed by a leadership team with decades of experience in property, compliance, technical services and commercial operations. Our wider industry experience includes supporting thousands of corporate and public sector accounts across the UK and Europe.
Liverpool businesses span a wide range of sectors, including maritime and logistics, advanced manufacturing, professional services, health and life sciences, and digital and creative industries. The city region's port and logistics infrastructure also supports businesses that move and store goods.
With such a varied mix of premises, choosing fire extinguishers in Liverpool starts with understanding your site's risks. These could include:
Everyday combustible materials found in workplaces and commercial buildings.
Equipment in offices, workshops and industrial spaces.
Liquids used or stored on site may present different fire risks.
Fire risks associated with cooking in commercial kitchens.
The extinguisher you choose should always match the risks present.
The P50 is made using composite materials rather than a conventional steel cylinder. It won't corrode and is designed for a longer service life, with a manufacturer's overhaul at 10 years and a total 20-year lifecycle.
You also don't need to arrange annual engineer servicing. Once trained, someone within your organisation can complete the required annual check.
If you operate a busy warehouse, office, public building or other commercial premises, arranging access for another annual contractor visit isn't always convenient.
A P50 fire extinguisher in Liverpool lets you bring the annual inspection in-house. It also removes the five-year discharge test, reducing the external servicing you need to organise. For organisations managing several locations, fewer recurring visits to coordinate can make the practical side of fire protection easier to manage and much more efficient.
The TristarFS app is designed to help businesses manage their P50 fire extinguisher inspections with less administration. Rather than coordinating annual engineer appointments, trained employees can carry out the necessary checks and record them using the app.
Clear instructions guide users through the inspection, helping ensure each stage is completed and documented. This makes it easier to maintain inspection records and demonstrate that annual checks have been undertaken.
For businesses operating across Liverpool, particularly those managing several sites, the app provides a convenient way to oversee ongoing P50 maintenance.
The TristarFS app can be downloaded on iPhone and Android smartphones.
The P50 is a multi-purpose extinguisher. Where risks allow, one unit may replace a pair of traditional extinguishers.
That can reduce the amount of equipment you need to buy and manage.
Add in the removal of annual engineer servicing and the longer replacement cycle, and switching can make financial sense too. Depending on your existing provision, a return on investment could be achieved in as little as three years.
