The “Command of Civil Defense” of the seven Emirates extends its acceptance of products approved by Europe´s largest institute for safety and now also lists gas extinguishing systems certified in accordance with the Guidelines VdS 2454.

Approved components and systems are fully compatible with NFPA installation standards and are accepted by authorities around the world. The “General Headquarter Command of Civil Defense” of the United Arab Emirates has now extended its listing of VdS-approved products to also include gas extinguishing technology.
