December 20, 2023

Hochiki, the leading provider of innovative, Japanese designed life safety solutions, specialising in the design, manufacturing, and distribution of state-of-the-art fire detection and emergency lighting systems will be at Intersec 2024 – the world’s leading event for emergency services, security, and safety. The Hochiki regional team, who are based in Dubai, UAE, will be at the event to demonstrate their range of sophisticated fire detection systems, Latitude and their emergency lighting system, FIREscape Nepto.

For many of Hochiki’s customers Latitude is the at the core of their safety systems and the team are excited to announce that the system will be the headline product on show at this year’s event. The platform is favoured worldwide due to its powerful networking capabilities, its modular hardware which is configurable for multiple applications and its impressive cause and effects programming capabilities.

Sophisticated enough to operate anywhere in the world, in multiple languages, Latitude works across a diverse range of applications – from schools and hospitals, skyscrapers filled with thousands of office workers, apartment blocks and entertainment venues, cultural, commercial and manufacturing spaces as well as international travel ports, hotels and logistics hubs.

The system has been designed to be simple to configure and easy to use by anyone, utilising touchscreen technology with a graphical user interface to help display vital information. It is UL, FM and EN approved and recently achieved BOSEC approval, adding to its existing EN 54 Part 13 approval and recent acquisition of Denmark’s prestigious DBI certification.

At the 2023 event, the Hochiki team exclusively revealed to the world their all-new emergency lighting system, FIREscape Nepto. Back for the 2024 event, the team will be on hand to demonstrate features such as its intelligent self-contained LED luminaires and exit signage connected via screened, extra-low voltage (40V) cabling. Integral batteries with a 10-year lifespan, make installation and maintenance of the FIREscape Nepto system quick, easy and appealing to install teams. And as the whole system is networkable, fully self-monitoring and self-testing with a central point of control, fire and security teams around the world rate it as one of the best on the market.

Commenting on attending the event, Hochiki Middle East General Manager, Mr Hemanth Kumar said, “We’re thrilled to be here at Intersec to kick off what will be an exciting 2024 for Hochiki customers. We will be showcasing the capabilities of our market leading system Latitude and our emergency lighting system FIREscape Nepto. We look forward to seeing customers new and old at this year’s event.”
