Is your project protected from Fire and Floods?

Most Safer Group devices don’t just detect and deter intruders; we are a comprehensive risk mitigation provider, ensuring coverage of all major threats to rail and civil engineering projects. Risk mitigation is increasingly critical in these industries, where the consequences of incidents can disrupt essential infrastructure and raise significant concerns for site operators and insurers alike.

While intrusion remains a concern, many site holders overlook the risks posed by industrial accidents, fires, or flooding, which can cause extensive delays and financial repercussions. For instance, flooding incidents can severely impact rail infrastructure, leading to costly repairs and prolonged service disruptions.

Similarly, fire incidents on rail or civil engineering sites, though infrequent, can result in catastrophic losses. Incidents like the Carlisle floods of 2005, the Cockermouth floods of 2009 and Storm Desmond in 2015 are stark reminders of the long-term impact such events can have on critical infrastructure projects.

The risks are undeniable, but they are also manageable. Our fire detection solutions are fully compliant with HSG168 standards, making them ideal for rail and civil engineering sites.

Detection systems are often mandatory on projects within these industries, with insurers increasingly demanding detailed visual verification or robust evidence of preventative measures. By integrating Safer Group’s fire and flood-ready devices into your risk management strategy, you can ensure compliance, reduce risks, and leave the complexities of site safety and insurer requirements in expert hands.
