Fire protection for the Automotive industry
The modern manufacturing processes in automotive factories present unique fire hazards, from handling flammable liquids to testing batteries. Heat generated by the equipment in these areas, as well as flammable liquids, make these spaces susceptible to fires – and perfect for the Marioff HI-FOG® water mist fire suppression system.
HI-FOG is used in numerous automotive manufacturing plants in Europe, the Americas, Asia and Africa. The automotive water mist fire suppression system is often used to protect engine test cells, electric car R&D laboratories, climate chambers and vehicle component manufacturing, as well as paint shops – including automotive paint lines and rooms with flammable liquids.
The HI-FOG water mist fire suppression system offers fire protection for both your employees and your car manufacturing process. A high performance and quality automotive fire suppression system ensures minimal interruptions and downtime in the case of a fire. We help keep people and operations safe.
