Objectives of Fire Protection in Morocco

fire protection in Morocco

Fires and explosions in Morocco not only cause loss of life or property damage but also disruption of the production process or services.

In addition, Fire Protection in Morocco is now a mandatory requirement by national regulations and the Labor Code. Insurers also require fire protection for facilities insured in Morocco , and the level of this fire protection affects the insurance premium, which may be too high in the event of failure of the fire protection.

Even if you are compensated for the amount of damage by fire insurance in Morocco or business interruption, your absence from the markets, sometimes for several months, leads to the irreparable loss of many customers. This loss of market share and business cannot be offset by the amount of this compensation.

Fire protection in Morocco is legal under the Labor Code and an implementing decree (Safety Regulations against the risk of fire and panic in constructions )

Below are the different phases of a Fire Protection Upgrade Project:

The first phase of the Fire Protection audit process in Morocco consists of carrying out a field visit and an analysis of the company’s activities in terms of products, quantities, storage, etc. to assess the site’s level of compliance with regulatory requirements. A diagnostic report is then submitted to the principal containing the actions to be deployed to upgrade or protect the site against fire risks.

The second phase of the Fire Protection audit process in Morocco consists of carrying out a complete Engineering of your site, in view of its current and projected use, in order to comply with future obligations in terms of legislation applying to classified installations for the environmental Protection. This Engineering includes:

  • Determination of the increasing scenario in terms of fire risk,
  • The calculation of the fire water needs of the site to cover the needs of the various fire protection installations,
  • Engineering of fire detection systems,
  • Engineering of fire protection systems,
  • Engineering of passive protection in terms of firewalls, safety distances, etc.
  • Phase 3: implementation or implementation of fire protection solutions

The third phase consists of drafting specifications for the launch of consultations for the fire upgrade of your Project. During this phase, NPM assists the project manager in launching consultations for the choice of the contractor who will ensure the implementation of the solutions recommended in the specifications. NPM will also take care of the validation of the Technical Data Sheets for the fire protection equipment that will be proposed by the contractor. Finally, NPM will take care of carrying out the performance tests of the fire protection system put in place.
