Fire protection materials

Fire Prevention and Fighting (FPF) is not only a mandatory obligation under the law, but also a vital responsibility of every business, production facility, residential area, and even household. However, when starting to deploy a fire prevention and fighting system, many people are easily “overwhelmed” by a series of types of fire prevention and fighting equipment, complex technical standards, and strict legal regulations.

This article was compiled by Bao Tin Steel with the aim of:

  • Understand each component of the fire alarm and fire-fighting system.
  • Consulting on the selection of fire protection equipment according to standards, suitable for the specific characteristics of the project.
  • Providing full knowledge for installation, maintenance and acceptance according to legal regulations.

I. Overview of Current Fire Protection System

Fire protection equipment (or fire prevention and fighting equipment) is all machines, tools, and support tools specifically designed to detect, warn, prevent, and extinguish fires as soon as they arise, to protect human life, property, and minimise material damage. Fire protection equipment includes both fire alarm systems (such as fire detectors, fire alarm bells, fire alarm control panels, etc.) and fire fighting systems (such as fire extinguishers, water nozzles, sprinkler systems, gas and foam fire fighting systems, etc.).

A complete fire protection system consists of two main groups: a fire alarm system and a fire extinguishing system.

1. Fire Alarm System

The important role of the fire alarm system is to detect fire risks early and give quick warnings to minimise damage to people and property.
