Is It Really Worth The Risk?
All businesses have people and assets that need protection, particularly those that need to provide continuity with products and services. From a fire, 25% of fire/ smoked damaged businesses never recover, according to recent government statistics show that over loss of stock or the inability to continue communicating their services. Enhancing a fire system to include monitoring can reduce the risk of losing a business to fire, prioritising fire signals for a swift response and linking these signals directwith command and control centres ensuring that emergency services can be dispatched without delay.
