u I’m on the look-out for a Fire Extinguisher that
I can standardise for all our requirements,” said the
Engineer of a Colliery and Ironfoundry.

“ What are your risks ? ” queried the Pyrene man.

“Well, there’s the Mine with its several inflam-
mable risks and its difficult conditions—the Colliery
Buildings and Foundry—our Electrical Installation—
and our Motor Vehicles.”

“ Pyrene is the very thing ! ”

“ My experience is that the usual fire extinguishers
may be all right for an ordinary outbreak, but when
it comes to highly inflammables, electrical fires, petrol,
oil, chemicals, gas,—exactly the things that most
often cause an outbreak—they’re useless.”

“ Pyrene is zzwusual ! That’s why there is such a
big demand for it by leading Colliery and Engineering

PYRENE

FOR MINES & COLLIERIES.

This folder emphasises the
importance of Pyrene from
the standpoint of its Handy
Size, Reliability, and the ease
with which it can be used
in confined spaces.

PYRENE
FOR FACTORIES.

This folder dwells upon the
ALL-ROUND fire-fighting
qualities of Pyrene for all
kinds of fires—even those
for which water is useless.

PYRENE
FOR ELECTRICAL FIRES.

Pyrene is a non-conductor
of electricity. It will not
damage the most delicate
apparatus or insulation. Its
efficiency has been proved
on innumerable occasions.

OVER ONE MILLION PYRENE

EXTINGUISHERS

The fire illustrated in this de ign was a
small fire at first. If it had been at tacked
at the start with Pyrene, the great ccfnfla-
gration depicted would never have occurred.

Firms. Its small handy size makes it easy to operate
in confined spaces. Its high extinguishing capacity
on alt kinds of incipient fires, including highly in-
flammables for which the ordinary extinguisher is
useless, makes it reliable for the ALL-ROUND pro-
tection of your buildings. It is a non-conductor of
electricity, and is recognised as the foremost extin-
gui her in this field, while, in regard to the protection
of Motor Vehicles, little more need be said than that
it has been adopted by the WAR OFFICE and
MINISTRY OF MUNITIONS for this very purpose/’

“ What about the cost ? ”

u It’s well below that of many machines different in
type but of similar extinguishing capacity on a more
limited variety of fires. There are cheaper machines,
but economy and cheapness are seldom synonymous.”

PYRENE

FOR MOTOR VEHICLES.

This folder is devoted to the
adaptability of Pyrene for the
protection of Motor Vehicles
It is unsurpassed in this
field. Hundreds of vehicles
have been saved by it.
