To effectively protect a building against the dangers posed by fire you need to have three components in place:
The difference between AFP and PFP is that AFP is there to put the fire out and PFP is there to control and contain the spread of fire and smoke.
An effective combination of these systems will reduce the risk to life and minimise the extent of fire damage.
With Global, you have one point of contact and complete confidence that you are in the hands of the best in the business.
1AFP usually needs some form of action to get it working. This may be manual - a fire extinguisher for example - or automatic detectors (AD).
2FSM is a system of training and assessments put in place to ensure that there are a clear set of procedures to follow in the event of a fire.
3PFP is part of the structure of the building and its function is not only to restrict the fire's progress, but also protect the integrity and stability of the building. Examples would be fire-resistant walls, doors and floors.
