Wooden fire extinguisher cutout to paint, 3–50 cm

The firefighter party for your child's birthday is planned, and the invitations still need something special. Or the volunteer fire brigade's anniversary needs table decorations that suit the occasion. That's exactly what this wooden fire extinguisher is made for. It's a laser-cut plywood silhouette that you can design however you like. Paint it, stick things on it or leave it natural. With just a few steps, the blank becomes your own decoration.

What changes for you

• You can start painting, decorating or writing on it straight away. The wood is untreated and takes paint, glue and oil well.
• Your decorations look clean and well finished, with no sanding needed. That's thanks to the smooth, laser-cut edges with their typical brown rim.
• You'll find exactly the size that suits your project. Heights range from 3 cm to 50 cm, selectable in 1 cm steps.
• You can easily kit out larger groups too, for example when crafting with children. The fire extinguisher is available singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.
• You get a piece from our own production – made by Bütic in Pößneck, Thuringia.

Why this wooden fire extinguisher makes a difference

A wooden fire extinguisher decoration brings the fire brigade theme to the table without being over the top. Instead of printed cardboard, you're holding a natural material that you design yourself. And you can see that in the result. Use it on the birthday table, on the noticeboard at the fire station or as a small gift. The motif tells a story straight away and turns simple decorations into something personal.

Material & finish

The silhouette is made from 3 mm plywood and is laser-cut. That gives it smooth edges and the characteristic brown rim, which gives the motif a clear outline. The wood is left natural, not varnished and not glazed. You can paint it, oil it, stick things on it or simply leave it as it is. Wood is a natural material, so the shade and grain vary from piece to piece. Small knots or irregularities are part of it and make every piece unique. They are not a flaw, just the nature of wood.

How to use the wooden fire extinguisher

• At a firefighter birthday party: every child can paint and decorate their own fire extinguisher. At the end, they take home a souvenir they made themselves.
• For crafting with children at home: one afternoon with a brush and glue, and the blank becomes a window decoration for a little fire brigade fan's bedroom.
• For a club party or fire brigade anniversary: lay out the silhouettes as place cards or table scatter. The table suits the occasion straight away.
• As a cheeky gift of money: attach a banknote to the wooden fire extinguisher – "for emergencies" – and your gift comes with a story.
• In a shop or office: next to fire safety notices or in a window display, the motif is noticed straight away.

Good to know about fire extinguishers

The fire extinguisher is a familiar symbol of safety and fire protection around the world. Hardly any motif stands so clearly for the work of the fire brigade. That's why the silhouette isn't just for fun. It also works well for fire safety lessons at nursery, fire brigade parties and anniversaries where the theme should be recognisable at a glance.

Care & durability

There isn't much you need to do. Store the untreated plywood in a dry place and protect it from constant moisture. That way it keeps its shape and look for a long time. If you paint or oil it, you decide on the colour and finish yourself – just as your project needs.

Frequently asked questions

Can I paint the fire extinguisher? Yes, the wood is untreated and can be painted, oiled or decorated with stick-ons. It's ideal for crafting with children too.

Why does the motif have a brown rim? The fire extinguisher is laser-cut. The brown rim forms during cutting and gives smooth edges and a clear outline.

Do all pieces look the same? The shape is identical, but the wood is a natural material and varies. Shade, grain and small knots differ, so every piece is unique.

Are there different sizes and quantities? Yes, you choose the height from 3 cm to 50 cm in 1 cm steps. You can order singly or in sets of 10, 25, 50 or 100.

The best part isn't the wooden silhouette itself. It's the moment when the little firefighters proudly hold up the fire extinguisher they painted themselves. Or when your party table shows at first glance what today is all about. Just choose your size and quantity and get started.
