A fire accident in a workplace could potentially cause devastating losses. Loss of life, damage to the property, disastrous environmental harm, and financial cost can be severe.
Understanding how to avoid potential fire accidents and how to mitigate the consequences is therefore essential. In terms of mitigation, one of many ways to reduce the consequence of fire is by installing the necessary fire protection, such as Passive Fire Protection (PFP) equipment and system.
The effectiveness of PFP products depends on their quality. The manufacturers of PFP products need to ensure their products fulfil the required fire-resistant performance. Therefore, PFP products need to be verified through fire testing and certified by a third-party inspector.
