Survitec has launched a next-generation high-expansion foam fire suppression system, enhancing foam output while reducing operating pressures and costs. This innovative design features optimized nozzle alignment and a redesigned impeller, achieving higher expansion rates at lower pressures. The system is lighter, more efficient, and compliant with upcoming regulations.
Survitec is urging shipowners and managers to prepare for new IMO fire protection regulations effective January 1, 2026. These require fixed water monitors on weather decks of Roro and Ropax vessels to address rising fire incidents, particularly with electric vehicles. These monitors offer efficient, targeted protection, enhancing crew safety during firefighting.
Survitec’s award-winning white paper on maritime fire safety risks exposes the dangerous consequences of inadequate fire safety inspections. With shipboard fires on the rise, the paper highlights the alarming cost of cutting corners on fire safety maintenance. It calls for improved oversight and maintenance practices to prevent avoidable system failures and substandard inspections.
