Retail
Protect your people and property from fire
The volume of staff and customers in retail spaces makes fire safety a huge concern. During opening hours, fire detection and suppression systems must work alongside efficient emergency exit routes and evacuation procedures to ensure everyone in a store or shopping centre has minimum exposure to injury in the event of a fire. When the store is closed, fire safety solutions should protect against sudden electrical fires or malicious arson attacks.
The UK retail sector is protected by strict fire safety regulations and guidance, and businesses must do everything in their power to provide fire protection to their staff and customers whilst integrating solutions into their shopfront without restricting the flow of footfall or compromising on design aesthetics.
Vipond experts help retail businesses meet regulatory standards by installing discreet but powerful fire safety solutions including fire detection and alarm systems, fire extinguishers, dry and wet risers, and fire sprinklers for shops, shopping centres, and retail parks. We also provide routine planned preventative maintenance (PPM) and regular inspections to keep the solutions working efficiently and effectively. Because retail environments are regular repurposed and refitted, we even provide alterations to existing fire safety solutions that will seamlessly blend into new designs and use cases.
If you need suppression solutions or sprinklers for shops or any other retail environment, keep your staff and customers safe from the threat of fire and contact our experts today.
