Brandbeveiliging in de (Petro) Chemie: onze sectorkennis voor een topproject

In the chemical industry, safety standards fall short in approximately three-quarters of firms, as indicated by inspection reports spanning 2015 and 2016. Widespread issues include malfunctioning fire safety systems, unsafe storage of hazardous substances, and outdated or absent emergency plans (e.g., evacuation plans). Despite efforts to raise awareness of hazards and associated measures, human factors remain an unpredictable risk in this constantly evolving industry.

At our company, we understand the critical role played by business dynamics in the sector (petro) chemicals. To mitigate the risk of serious incidents, we offer comprehensive organizational and technical solutions. Our automatic fire detection and extinguishing system ensures operational reliability, and we provide transparent cost breakdowns, encompassing not only purchase expenses but also preventive and corrective maintenance.

Our Approach

Fire safety always consists of the right balance between Intervention, Installation and Instruction, with you at the center. We explain step by step what our Installation-process contains.

Risk Assessment & Action Plan

The first step is to make a risk assessment based on architectural, systems and organisational aspects. Every building has its own risks, which we specify. The report identifies possible solutions in general terms plus an estimate of the cost if required. The solutions are worked out in the action plan, which also describes the implementation in the process or organisation.

Preliminary Design, Calculation & Engineering

After approval of the action plan, the design work can begin. The final cost estimate (quotation) is also made at this stage. Once the quotation has been agreed, we can start on the detailed design. The project assignment is signed by both the client and the contractor. In many cases, the drawings and design calculations also need to be approved by inspection bodies.

Installation, Commissioning & Certification

Clear agreements are made regarding planning, lead times, implementation and delivery. At the end of the project, we will submit a maintenance agreement for one or more years. Fire safety systems are usually delivered with a certificate. Sometimes that is just a product certificate, but often there is also an inspection certificate from an accredited inspection body. The inspection involves checking that the system matches the approved design and is functional.

Short-Term Projects / Small Works

The Short-term Projects / Small Works department has been specifically established to swiftly and adaptably execute tasks with agility. This work encompasses tasks stemming from residual points identified during maintenance or inspections, system modifications required following building renovations or expansions, replacement of parts or entire installations, as well as the installation of new, albeit small-scale, fire protection systems.
