- Aviation
Fire at an airport can cause devastating consequences if not quickly and effectively contained and suppressed. A fire on the runway, around fueling areas, and in hangars can cause an exceptional amount of damage, especially when you consider the highly flammable fuels involved.
- Clean Manufacturing
The European Commission�s definition of advanced manufacturing for clean production is not linked to any particular industrial sector. It includes activities that enable companies to improve productivity, boost production volume and speed, lower energy and materials consumption, increase operating precision, decrease waste, improve pollution management, and enable resource-efficient and low emission production.
FLN provides quality products to help your business reach these clean manufacturing goals.

- Commercial/Retail/Public Buildings
Office buildings, retail stores and other public buildings are not excluded when it comes to fire risk. These areas can pose an even greater risk because of the amount of people constantly in, on and around these facilities.
Protecting the lives of your guests and patrons should be your number one concern. FLN can help. We have the dependable fire suppression solutions to help control fires and limit damage.
- Cultural Properties (Museums/Archival Storage)
Protecting irreplaceable assets from fire alone isn’t enough. You also need to protect your property from the damage caused by traditional suppression agents.
Using water as a fire suppressant in areas where irreplaceable, high-value assets are stored, could be as devastating as fire itself.
FLN’s CO2 and CO2 antimagnetic extinguishers can be used to protect irreplaceable works of art, museum assets and archival storage.
- Data Centers
Protecting critical data and assets from fire alone isn’t enough. You also need to protect your data centers from the damage left behind by traditional suppression agents. According to the Geneva Association, in 2010 the economic loss - direct or indirect - in Germany and The United Kingdom alone was $44.5 million. Don’t let your business be a part of that statistic. FLN solutions can help.
- Education
Often a campus is a city within itself with student areas, cafeterias, laboratories, generator rooms, data centers, and many other facilities.
While these facilities are designed to serve the student, these multifunctional campuses also challenge those responsible for fire protection.
FLN provides the highest quality portable fire extinguishers to safely handle any situation.
- Healthcare
To help serve the patient most efficiently, many medical centers house multiple services in a single location including patient rooms, cafeterias, generators, laboratories, diagnostic rooms, and even helipads. While these capabilities and others are designed to serve the patient, these multifunctional facilities also challenge those responsible for fire protection.
Fires in these buildings can be particularly dangerous due to the presence of oxygen and other flammable substances and the challenge of evacuating patients who may not be ambulatory. Between 2004 and 2006, there was an average of 6,400 fires in medical facilities each year that were responsible for approximately 5 civilian fire deaths, 175 injuries, and $34 million in property loss annually (NFPA).
FLN has the ability to help you target the fire suppression solutions you need for your healthcare business.

In the hospitality industry, people are the most important asset. FLN has the solutions to help protect your customers and your employees.
- Manufacturing
By their very nature, many manufacturing facilities are considered high fire-risk areas. Safety managers are challenged daily to provide both effective fire prevention practices coupled with effective, quick-response fire suppression solutions for a number of processes and mobile equipment.
The proper fire protection solutions can help reduce the risk of asset loss.

flammable liquid/chemical storage areas, generators, and machinery, mechanical storage and also mining vehicles.
- Oil and Gas/Chemical/Petro Chemical
There’s probably no environment that poses a greater fire hazard risk than Oil and Gas facilities. An average of 228 refinery or natural gas plant fires occurred per year around the world, with estimated economic loss in the billions. Oil and gas well drilling and servicing activities involve many different types of equipment and materials. Recognizing and controlling hazards is critical to preventing injuries and deaths.
Given the highly volatile nature of flammable liquids, you need protection that you can count on.

- Restaurants
Today’s commercial kitchens pose unique challenges in fire suppression. As cooking equipment evolves at a rapid pace, the potential loss to fire damage can only increase. You need a fire suppression solution that you can trust.
In 2013-14, there were 22,200 fires recorded in buildings that were not dwellings, such as pubs, cafes, and bars, according to the Department for Communities and Locals Government of Great Britain. Deep fat fryers fires cause one fifth of all accidental fires attended by the Fire and Rescue Service in the UK each year, according to www.firesafe.org.uk .
About twenty people are killed or injured every day in accidental fires that start in the kitchen, the most common of these are caused by deep fat frying.
- Telecommunications
At the heart of telecommunications, maintain highly-sensitive equipment is the priority. From a fire protection standpoint, telecommunications equipment facilities present a unique set of conditions. Life safety hazards notwithstanding, a fire that might be considered small in other industrial settings can have a devastating impact on the community such facilities serve. Most, if not all, of the telecommunications equipment is generally stored in a central location, elevating your risk with enormous potential impact on networks.
With global gross domestic product, or GDP, calculated at approximately $77 trillion for 2014, and the telecommunications sector estimated at $2 trillion and growing, the telecom industry accounts for approximately 2.5% of worldwide GDP, according to www.investopedia.com. The financial impact of service disruptions can be significant, and FLN is there to help minimize those disruptions.
- Transportation
We depend on many forms of transportation to move people and products throughout our communities and throughout the globe.
Vehicle fires caused an estimated annual average of three civilian deaths, 30 civilian injuries, and $24.2 million in direct property damage per year.
So when it comes to transportation you need a fire suppression solution that will quickly and effectively suppress a fire before it gets out of control - on land, sea or air.
FLN’s F-500 is the perfect fire suppression system for the transportation industry.
- Waste/Recycling
The constant operation of waste disposal equipment surrounded by flammable waste materials creates a fire hazard for waste management facilities and equipment operators.
Fires can occur in buried waste at landfills, in waste tyre storage areas, in compost piles and in surface piles of waste material and feedstock at solid waste facilities and refuse incineration plants.
In these extreme conditions, you need a fire suppression solution you can count on. Reliability is a primary concern. FLN provides standard foam and dry chemical extinguishers for fire protection in common areas, such as on-site offices, restrooms, and break facilities, as well as specialty fire extinguishers for use on vehicles and other specialty areas.
