SAFETY , SECURITY & FIRE PROTECTION
Bull Products protects riverside landmark 80 Strand
Bull Products , a manufacturer of life-saving fire
protection equipment , has installed its Cygnus 1
Wireless Alarm System at 80 Strand in London .
The Cygnus Alarm units have been installed to
protect the building during the refurbishment
project . Due to the nature of the project
including the careful restoration of original art
deco features , round the clock protection was
required to ensure comprehensive safety of the
site and its workers .
Working in partnership with Trident Electrical ,
Bull Products provided Cygnus fire alarms ,
extinguishers and trolleys across different levels
of the 12-storey building . The Cygnus Alarm
System was also required to interface with the
permanent alarm system on site , ensuring that
site workers were alerted to any risk of fire , 24
hours a day .

Two seven-storey residential apartment buildings in the cultural and social hot-spot of Cardiff Bay are now protected by evacuation alert systems from UK manufacturer , Advanced .
The EvacGo panels have been installed to meet the criteria set out in the BS 8629 Code of Practice for the design , installation , commissioning , and maintenance of evacuation alert systems for use by fire and rescue services in England and Wales .
