Innovative fire safety systems from Hochiki Europe have been used to protect the residents of a renovated hotel barge operated by oil and gas company Perenco in Gabon.
The M.E.D. 96/98/EC Directive is an initiative of the European Commission (EC) in the European Union (EU) set up with the intention to reduce costs for the end user by having a simplified classification model for marine approvals.
All approved and authorised products, including Hochiki's, are stored in the MarED database, which to date contains more that 35,000 datasets about products approved under the EU Marine Equipment Directive.
Products are strictly tested by a third party, such as Germanischer Lloyd or LPCB, for use in the marine environment before being granted an approval certificate.
