Apreco continue to lead the way in the fire suppression market with annual testing of their pressure relief vents.
The safety of building structures is of paramount importance to Apreco. Subsequently, their pressure relief vents undergo rigorous fire testing to the EWCL5 certification. Apreco were the first manufacturer to obtain the EWCL5 for their pressure relief vents following numerous meetings and discussions with WarringtonFire.
With no harmonised code available for fire testing of pressure relief vents available at the time, Apreco created a test protocol in conjunction with the EWCL5. As a result, the performance of these vents could now be evaluated as if in real-world scenarios.
Upon retaining their EWCL5 certification, Mike Hodges, Managing Director, said:
“This shows the continued hard work of the team at Apreco. This year we revised and updated versions of both the IGV® and SGV® vents successfully completing the fire integrity tests.”
