Zenova Group PLC (AIM: ZED), a provider of innovative fire safety and heat management technology and products, is pleased to announce that it has commissioned Gardiner Associates Training and Research (GATR) to undertake live demonstrations of its Zenova FP fire protection paint in various environments, including furnished domestic rooms.
Taking place in mid-August and early September, those attending the demonstration events will include experts from the insurance sector, fire & rescue services and police services.
GATR is Europe’s largest provider of fire investigation training programmes and over the past 25 yrs. have delivered hundreds of theory and hands-on practical courses to thousands of representatives from UK and overseas fire & rescue services, police services, the forensic providers and insurance industry.
Commenting on the events, Tony Crawley, CEO of Zenova Group PLC, said: “GATR are at the forefront of fire investigation training in the UK and have one of the most comprehensive facilities dedicated to fire-investigation and related activities outside of the USA. By partnering with GATR we can demonstrate the benefits of Zenova FP fire protection paint in ‘real life’ room setups, including how it stops the spread of fire, protects substrates, limits a fire’s intensity, and reduces the amount of water needed to tackle a fire, and the associated water damage. All of these are important factors for those who fight fires, investigate their origin, behaviour and causes, and insure properties against fire risks. Improving fire safety is of such critical importance, especially in properties housing the vulnerable, in multi-occupancy buildings and high-rise apartment blocks, and also commercial and industrial properties which are sometimes overlooked. We hope that by providing these demonstrations, we can increase understanding and awareness of Zenova FP fire protection paint amongst the various fire experts who will be attending, and highlight the benefits it brings to fire investigation and in helping reduce insurance costs and losses. As is the case with all the testing and demonstrations Zenova undertakes, we look forward to sharing video, results, and feedback once the events have been concluded.”
