Emphasis on sustainability

Fire is an assault on people, planet and profit. By preventing fire, extinguishing fire and controlling fire, we avoid damage to people, the environment and your business operations. We also want our business operations to reflect our social responsibility.

We want to make fire prevention even more sustainable. Our focus is on fire safety, with an emphasis on sustainability.

Corporate social responsibility

PFAS

Fluorine-free fire protection

Saval is at the forefront of the development of a completely fluorine-free fire protection. In collaboration with TNO, we have developed a foam for portable fire extinguishers, without harmful PFAS. This without making concessions to the extinguishing capacity, on both solids and liquids.
