| Chubb will supply fire alarms and integrated systems to Bulwell Academy, Nottingham |
Chubb Fire and Security has won a contract with the Bulwell Academy, Nottingham, to supply an integrated fire and security alarm system. Chubb Fire is part of UTC Fire & Security, a unit of United Technologies Corp.
M&E Contractor on the project is Balfour Beatty and it specified Chubb to install a solution that includes fire alarm, disabled refuge, PA, intruder alarm and toilet alarms.
The Bulwell Academy opened in September 2009 replacing two secondary schools in the local community. The academy, sited in new state-of-the-art facilities, caters to students from the age of 11 and has its own sixth form.
"Fire safety in schools is obviously one of the primary concerns," adds Jane Garland, Marketing and Communications Manager at Chubb. Chubb Fire and Security is pleased to use its expertise to keep all students, staff and facilities safe from the threat of fire and indeed theft and vandalism.
Balfour Beatty has capabilities in construction, civil engineering, contracting and consulting, mechanical, electrical, electronics, systems and control, and chemical / materials engineering as well as project management and long term investment services.
