BAFE

At Firex South BAFE will be focusing on the importance of third party certification and the role that the schemes it has adopted can play in the process.

For an era in which self-assessment will play an even greater part in assessing fire risk, BAFE's adopted schemes, which are developed by independent certification bodies, provide specifiers and end-users with the knowledge that products and services approved under the schemes meet and will continue to meet the relevant criteria.

Anybody interested in the training opportunities available from BAFE can gain information and reserve places on courses at its stand.
