Hochiki Middle East will introduce FIREscape, the first ever low voltage, intelligent, emergency lighting system, on Stand B12, Hall 3 at this year’s INTERSEC exhibition in Dubai, January 17th to 19th 2016.
The Hochiki Middle East FIREscape system has been developed to generate less than five per cent of the CO2 emissions produced by traditional lighting. By switching 100 230V fluorescent exit luminaires with FIREscape LED exit lights, a building will see its CO2 emissions decrease by 2,100 KG every year*. FIREscape also reduces running costs over its lifetime, helping customers make financial savings of up to 95 per cent in energy costs when compared with non-LED emergency lighting systems.
The leading manufacturer of fire safety and emergency lighting solutions will also unveil a range of new products, including Linear Heat Detection (LHDC) and High Sensitivity Smoke Detection products, both EN and UL approved, as well as its SIL2 approved range.
Assistant Managing Director, Robert Head, will be joined on stand by Sales Director Graham Lowe and newly appointed General Manager of Sales and Marketing, Tracy Kirk.
Robert commented: “The Middle East is an important market to us at Hochiki, which is why we’ve continuously chosen to attend INTERSEC, one of the biggest security and safety events in the region. The market demands a wide selection of technologies and globally accepted third party approvals and we are ideally placed to provide the very best life safety equipment approved to both European standards (EN) and American standards (UL and FM).
“This is an opportunity to introduce our new solutions to the Middle East market, and to meet with industry leaders to showcase the hard work that Hochiki Middle East has undertaken to protect buildings and their occupants across the region.”
