Cruise Ships

Over the last decades, there has been a steady increase in the number of such voyages by cruise ships and other ships, resulting in the development of a specialized line of shipping business.

Cruise ships and passenger ships in general offer particular amenities in terms of passenger accommodation, appearance, decoration, equipment and service. Nevertheless, at the same time, each voyage made on board such ships entails a number of risks for which each shipping company must be prepared.

The most important factor in this sector is protection against fire. Fire detection and fire extinguishing systems constitute essential equipment for the protection of passengers.

Advantages of Fire Detection
