Fires in the foodservice industry account for 10% of overall fires in non-dwelling buildings and 17% of non-fatal casualties (Source: Home Office Incident Recording System. 2014/15 Statistics). Food and drink premises are regarded as one of the more high-risk categories because of the hazards associated with kitchens.
Fires here can arise in numerous ways, including defective or damaged heating controls, unattended devices, burners overheating and grease/dirt residue buildup.
With this specific, very problematic risk in mind, we have developed and certified the PAFSS KitchenGuard®system.
The PSFSS KitchchenGuard system offers peace of mind for customers looking to specify a fully tested, approved and certified solution for fire protection of their kitchen and catering equipment. It incorporates many innovative features, to bring groundbreaking characteristics and reliability to anyone with responsibility for kitchen fire suppression.
With kitchen fires being difficult to contain and control, KitchenGuard has been specifically designed to protect catering equipment in accordance with LPS 1223: “Requirements and testing procedures for the LPCB certification and listing of fixed fire extinguishing systems for catering equipment”.
Investment in a KitchenGuard®system can help safeguard your valuable assets and staff against the risk and impact of fire at your premises.
