Challenge

The use of effective fire safety equipment is of the highest importance and is instrumental in saving lives and protecting property. Ceasefire – a leading India-based manufacturer of firefighting products – works with companies across a broad range of industries. In order to differentiate their 360 degree-unified firefighting product portfolio from other products in the market, Ceasefire required assurance of testing to rigorous safety standards. However, with numerous organisations offering testing and third-party certification, Ceasefire had to determine which was best placed to start their journey with based on several factors, including level of expertise and worldwide recognition.

As Vishal Solanki, Marketing Head at Ceasefire, explains, “Ceasefire extinguishers and systems are designed and manufactured at the very forefront of technology in the company’s state-of-the-art manufacturing facility that guarantees top-of-the-line quality for consumers.

“However, to substantiate the high-quality promise of Ceasefire, the company wanted an independent assessment of its products by a world-renowned quality agency which could second the quality claim of its products and services, worldwide”.

Project outcome

Ceasefire have been continually impressed with the extensive laboratory facilities that BRE have available for testing, and impressed with BRE’s fire safety experts, who are renowned for their expertise.

Successful certification means that a number of Ceasefire’s extinguishers and fire systems have been thoroughly tested to well-recognised industry standards. Vishal believes that LPCB certification has allowed Ceasefire to demonstrate their product’s quality and recognition in the market. Vishal says “LPCB certification gives our firefighting equipment the recognition that it truly deserves and opens up a large market for us in terms of the countries that acknowledge this certification”.
