Fires pose a significant risk in industrial settings, especially in sectors like oil & gas, power plants, and manufacturing. Effective fire protection systems are essential to safeguard assets, employees, and infrastructure.
Types of Fire Protection Systems:
- Active Fire Protection: Fire alarms, sprinklers, and automatic suppression systems (such as gas-based or foam-based suppression).
- Passive Fire Protection: Fire-resistant walls, doors, and structural components that prevent fire from spreading.
Latest Trends in Fire Safety Technology
- AI and Smart Fire Detection: AI-powered fire detection systems use real-time monitoring to reduce false alarms and speed up response times.
- Advanced Suppression Agents: Eco-friendly fire retardants, such as clean-agent suppression systems, minimize environmental impact while providing effective fire control.
- Integration with IoT: Smart fire systems can be integrated into a building’s central management system for remote monitoring and instant alerts.
