| The filling station will allow ship systems to the region without fires suppression agent |
Scottsdale, Arizona based Firetrace International has announced the completion of the first of many regional filling stations, located in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
Working in partnership with Jeddah - based Saudi Sicli, the UL [Underwriters Laboratories] approved filling station is able to offer first-fill capabilities for FM-200.
The filling station will allow the ISO 9001:2008 certified company to ship systems to the region without fires suppression agent, reducing shipping costs and the potential dangers involved with shipping. The facility has also been designed to offer are filling and repair service of existing cylinders currently in the Saudi Arabian market.
Later this year Firetrace will open its next fill station in South Africa, with the Johannesburg-based company, Chrinica, which will serve the sub-saharan Africa Market. In addition, Firetrace has implemented plans for further fill stations operating in the United Arab Emirates and Singapore.
Scott Starr, director of marketing at Firetrace, said; “The completion of this filling station will allow us to reduce shipping costs and further our offering of cutting edge fire suppression solutions that protect lives and critical assets.”
