As we see in the New Year, now is an ideal time for businesses to reflect on safety measures and ensure robust protections are in place. Fire safety is a critical aspect that demands attention, especially considering recent statistics on commercial fire incidents in the UK.
Commercial Fire Statistics from 2024
In the year ending March 2024, fire and rescue services in England attended 138,977 fires, marking a 22% decrease compared to the previous year. This reduction is largely attributed to a significant drop in secondary fires and outdoor primary fires, influenced by varying weather conditions. However, primary fires, which include those in commercial properties, still accounted for 61,970 incidents. Notably, there were 13,295 other building fires, encompassing many commercial establishments [GOV].
While the overall number of fires has decreased, the persistent occurrence of fires in commercial settings underscores the necessity for effective fire prevention and suppression systems.

They can control or extinguish fires at your business premises before the arrival of fire and rescue services, significantly reducing potential damage and safeguarding lives.
