Save lives, Save Assets – N&C’s fire safety range
» » IN RECENT MONTHS, THE
importance of fire safety within
and throughout buildings has been
brought to the forefront as a priority in
commercial and residential buildings.
Fire safety aims to reduce the
destruction of assets caused by a fire,
as well as more importantly save lives of
those you are responsible for. By putting
the correct fire safety measures in place,
whether that be during the plan
of construction, or implemented
into a structure which already
exists you can help to prevent the
spread of a fire.
During a comprehensive
assessment, fire doors were found
to be missing from a number of
both private and local authority buildings,
with those who did have fire doors, found
to be missing a number of essential
products that lead to them failing basic
Fire Safety Assessment Programmes. It
is essential that your buildings, whether
residential, commercial or industrial, are
compliant with Building
Regulations and that you
have a fire protection scheme in place
to help occupants escape safely, whilst
preventing a fire from spreading.
