- Fire Alarms, Signage and Emergency for Business
Fire and smoke damage can have a devastating short and long term effect on any business. Protect your business with a fire detection and alarm system including life safety equipment from IDES, a BAFE approved fire protection company.
Fire detection not only protects your business but also protects the lives of you and your staff. As a business owner you are legally obliged to ensure that all necessary precautions are in place and neglecting your fire safety responsibilities could lead to severe financial penalties or imprisonment. The legislation, Fire Safety Law (Scotland) 2006, outlines your responsibilities.

Smoke alarms – new regulations in Scotland
New Scottish fire safety regulations which came into force in Feb 2022 require all landlords, factors and government bodies to install smoke, heat and carbon monoxide alarms in homes they are responsible for.
Fire suppression stickers
The fire suppression sticker is an exciting technology developed for fire prevention in key areas which are at risk of fire breaking out.
They are strategically placed in electrical distribution boxes or on electrical appliances which could possibly catch fire such as LAN cabinets, some items of machinery, fridges, freezers, washing machines, tumble dryers. Once they are installed you will have peace of mind knowing that if a fire does break out the fire suppression stickers will extinguish the fire without it catching and spreading.
