Owners and operators of parking garages must guarantee the safety of users through proper maintenance, adequate supervision and effective lighting. Moreover, according to the Bbl, they have a legal duty of care for fire safety, by limiting fire hazards, guaranteeing safe escape routes and ensuring adequate fire alarm and alarm systems and extinguishing facilities. In addition, according to the Bbl and NEN 2443, they are responsible for good air quality and control of harmful substances such as CO, NOx and particulate matter. Kingspan Light + Air supports this with a proactive and integrated approach to fire alarm and evacuation alarm systems, CO/LPG detection, ventilation and smoke control systems. From advice and realization to maintenance and inspection, in which all themes of the RAMSHEC system (Reliability, Availability, Maintainability, Safety, Health, Environment and Cost) are expressly addressed.
