Fire Prevention and Fighting Risk Management in Industrial Zones — VN24H Standards
Industrial fires are exceptionally dangerous disasters. They not only cause property damage — sometimes reaching hundreds of billions of dong — but can also claim the lives of workers, disrupt supply chains, and seriously damage a company's reputation with international partners. According to data from Vietnam's Fire Police, industrial zones are among the highest fire-risk locations in the country.
Specific Fire Risk Sources in Industrial Zones
- Industrial electrical short circuits: High-load three-phase electrical systems, transformers, and control panels — any point can become an ignition source when overloaded or poorly connected.
- Flammable materials: Raw materials, semi-finished products, and chemicals in many factories are highly flammable and explosive.
- Gas and chemical leaks: Particularly common in food processing, electronics, textile, and chemical manufacturing plants.
- Blocked emergency exits: Caused by improper storage of goods or lack of awareness among workers.
VN24H's Specialized Fire Prevention Team
Unlike many security units that only provide basic fire safety training, VN24H invests systematically in professional fire prevention capabilities:
- 100% of security personnel are trained and certified in basic fire prevention according to the Ministry of Public Security standards.
- Each industrial zone is assigned at least one Fire Prevention Team Leader with an advanced certificate.
- Full equipment provided: CO2 and dry powder fire extinguishers, fire hoses, smoke masks, and emergency communication devices.
- Regular fire drills (at least twice a year) conducted in coordination with local Fire Police.
Patrol Process for Fire Risk Detection
VN24H patrol teams use electronic checklists (not relying on individual memory) during every patrol round, including: inspection of fire alarm systems, emergency exit checks, monitoring of abnormal heat sources, inspection of fire extinguishers, and fire hydrant pipeline checks. Thermal cameras assist in detecting overheating points that are invisible to the naked eye.
Coordination with Fire Prevention Authorities
VN24H maintains a close working relationship with local fire prevention units at each industrial zone. We provide floor plans of the industrial zone, locations of fire hydrant boxes, and technical specifications of each workshop so that firefighting forces can respond as effectively as possible when needed.
Conclusion
Fire prevention is not merely a legal obligation — it is a responsibility to protect human lives and corporate assets. VN24H is committed to delivering a comprehensive fire prevention system, from prevention to emergency response, ensuring your industrial zone remains completely safe 24/7.
