BSA AT CABE 2021
The Business Sprinkler Alliance (BSA) is delighted to sponsor and support the Chartered Association of Building Engineers (CABE) Annual Conference and Exhibition 2021, taking place both in-person and virtually from 14-15 October.
The Business Sprinkler Alliance advocates greater business resilience by enhancing protection against fire through the increased acceptance and use of fire sprinklers in commercial and industrial premises.
One of the most efficient and effective ways to reduce the impact of fire is by ensuring that when one starts it is quickly extinguished so that the threat to occupants and damage is minimised. Fire sprinkler systems do just this!
The evidence shows that sprinkler systems have an operational reliability of 94%. When they operate they extinguish or contain the fire on 99% of occasions (across a wide range of buildings).
Fire sprinklers reduce fire damage on average by 50-75% and reduce financial loss from fire to one sixth.
The below timeline shows how a fire can progress within a building with and without a sprinkler system installed.
