Protection aims

The three protection aims

Preventive fire protection saves people's lives and property. Three points are fundamentally important when saving people's lives and protecting property against fire. 40 years of experience with fire protection in the field of electrical installations and a unique product range make OBO one of the few providers who cover all three protection aims of construction fire protection:

Tested quality

Fire protection without compromises

There can be no compromises with fire protection: In an emergency, every product used must function absolutely reliably and also comply with legal and construction regulations. As an OBO customer, you can thus rely on tested quality. Our fire protection experts subject every newly-developed product to comprehensive tests in accredited testing institutes. In so doing, we orientate ourselves to national and international testing standards, such as DIN, EN, IEC and ANSI.

Independent testers accept the results and assign the appropriate proofs of suitability, such as approvals, evaluations or test certificates, to our products.

We like to make every effort for our fire tests! When we test our cable support systems with function maintenance in a fire, we test the entire cable system, consisting of the routing systems and cables with integrated function maintenance. We thus subject the entire system to the practical test in case of fire and test whether our products can withstand the temperatures of up to 1,000°C.

Often, we even carry out such fire tests in the development phase of a product. The results then flow into the further development. At the end, we have absolutely safe and practical solutions, which meet the requirements of the market.
