The food and beverage industry embraces a wide range of companies, including those involved in the processing of raw food materials and the manufacturing, packaging and distribution of food and drink. The industry is faced with escalating costs and high demands for quality control and sanitary performance. Critical operations and assets must be protected from disastrous events that can occur in the F&B manufacturing process.

Food processing produced in large quantities entail high fire risks. Defective machine parts, foreign bodies or high process temperatures can cause overheating, sparks or glowing embers which can trigger off fire and dust explosions in mechanical and pneumatic conveying facilities, filters, silos and bins. AFSS’s environmentally friendly, pre-engineered fire suppression systems are designed to protect the processes and equipment while meeting the industry’s strict hygienic and sanitary requirements.

The environment friendly AFSS detect and extinguish fire safely without the need to engage water based or other firefighting technologies that could possibly halt production and cause collateral damage in the facility. AFSS can guard facilities and equipment against fire damage both direct and collateral as well as minimize the risk of potential injury to personnel.  Ultimately business interruption is avoided and business continuity is secured.
