Industrial floors burn differently. Hot work, dust, wiring, flammable liquids, big equipment. If a fire starts, you do not get time to look it up.
Prevention first
Most industrial fires start with something you can walk past every day. Keep inspections and service on the calendar. Walk the hazard. Train the people who work next to it.
Watch these:
- Hot work — train, clean the area, supervise
- Combustible dust — housekeep it; do not let it pile up
- Electrical — exposed wires, overloaded circuits, extension cords used as permanent power
- Flammable liquids and gas — store and handle to the label and the code
Emergency plan
Write who calls, who evacuates, where people meet. Put it in onboarding. Run it. Update it when the floor changes.
Fight or get out
Nobody is required to fight a fire because an extinguisher is on the wall. Early stage: decide fast — pull the pin, or pull the alarm and leave. Do not wait for a boss to say go.
What we do
We inspect and service extinguishers on the floor. We match and service pre-engineered and special-hazard systems when an extinguisher is not enough. Vehicle suppression on the iron in the yard. Hydro-test when the cylinder is due. We write the visit to the paperwork you already keep.
