The use of portable halon containing fire extinguishers is no longer permitted after 31 December 2025. They must be replaced with environmentally friendly alternatives, according to the EASA Regulation (EC) No 1005/2009, and EU Regulation (EU) 2024/590 on halon replacement. The regulation is to mitigate the environmental impact on ozone and climate, reflecting the broader effort to eliminate ozone-depleting substances in line with the Montreal Protocol.
Stirling Dynamics supports clients in meeting regulatory requirements by offering an EASA-certified modification package, which includes certification and hardware from approved suppliers. All fire extinguishers provided are ETSO approved and utilise non-halon containing agents like Halotron 2 BTP (BrX), ensuring full compliance and enhanced safety.
In some cases, such as when you need to replace 1A:10B:C fire extinguishing agents, an EASA Major Change might be necessary in order to stay compliant. The process of obtaining EASA Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) ratification can take up to four months to complete. It is recommended to begin by 1 September at the latest.
