Benefits of aerosol fire extinguishing systems for archives

Economical

The aerosol fire extinguishing system can provide savings of up to 60%, thanks to the lower quantities required to extinguish fires and their ease of installation.
The Firecom system offers savings in all areas: transport, labour, materials and system management.

The Firecom fire extinguishing system is not pressurised, does not require pipework, and works even for archives which are not air sealed.
It does not require significant space because the aerosol generators are installed directly on the walls of the archive room, without the need for a dedicated plant room for cylinders. Aerosol fire extinguishing generators have a tested service life of 15 years and do not require extraordinary maintenance, just a six-monthly visual inspection and check of the electrical components.

The Firecom solution is 100% made in Italy – manufactured completely in house, with complete control over the entire production chain. The result is a product which complies with the highest fire safety standards and is non-toxic and environmentally sustainable, for safety of people, materials and the environment.

Causes of Fires in Archives

The main causes of fires in archives relate to internal or external factors.

Internal causes

Internal causes can involve malfunctions in electrical systems, human error, inadequate maintenance, or the presence of flammable materials, such as paper, wood and fabrics.

External causes

External causes, on the other hand, can result from naked flames, lightning, deliberate acts (arson) or human negligence. Prevention is undoubtedly the first step in reducing fire risk, but it is important to choose a high-quality fire suppression system, with a fast, safe extinguishing capacity, which can protect both people and the information held in an archive.
