Industry
Although everything is insurable, major fires in manufacturing industry result in bankruptcy in no fewer than 50 percent of cases.
The production sector faces various fire risks: human factors, flammable goods, failures in electrical systems, etc. The direct material damage is usually covered, but the consequential damage is often a bigger problem. Halting production erodes a firm’s competitive position and damages its image.

OUR APPROACH
Fire safety always consists of the right balance between Intervention, Installation and Instruction, with you at the center. We explain step by step what our Installation-process contains.
RISK ASSESSMENT & ACTION PLAN
The first step is to make a risk assessment based on architectural, systems and organisational aspects. Every building has its own risks, which we specify. The report identifies possible solutions in general terms plus an estimate of the cost if required. The solutions are worked out in the action plan, which also describes the implementation in the process or organisation.
PRELIMINARY DESIGN, CALCULATION & ENGINEERING
After approval of the action plan, the design work can begin. The final cost estimate (quotation) is also made at this stage. Once the quotation has been agreed, we can start on the detailed design. The project assignment is signed by both the client and the contractor. In many cases, the drawings and design calculations also need to be approved by inspection bodies.
INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING & CERTIFICATION
Clear agreements are made regarding planning, lead times, implementation and delivery. At the end of the project, we will submit a maintenance agreement for one or more years. Fire safety systems are usually delivered with a certificate. Sometimes that is just a product certificate, but often there is also an inspection certificate from an accredited inspection body. The inspection involves checking that the system matches the approved design and is functional.
