Fire detection solutions from GFE have been chosen to protect AVA General, a prestigious new commercial shopping complex in Tehran, Iran’s capital city.

Opened in 2020, AVA General is one of the largest and most sophisticated dedicated commercial and office complexes in Tehran.

AVA General

Spanning 50,000 square meters, it is home to 360 commercial outlets for well-known brands from across the building supplies sector and complementary industries. 

It also houses 40 commercial office units, 400 storage warehouses, restaurants, cafes, banks, post offices, cinemas, transport offices, a conference hall, a health club, and a taxi service.

30-zone fire safety management plan

The chosen plan comprises nine 4-loop GFE fire control panels, 2,700 detectors, and more than 500 sounders and MCPs

The chosen 30-zone fire safety management plan comprises nine 4-loop GFE fire control panels, 2,700 detectors, and more than 500 sounders and Manual Call Points (MCPs).

The system incorporates GFE’s ODYSSEY Graphics Display and Alarm Management System which enables up to 64 fire alarm panels to be connected and controlled by a PC. Each panel can then be displayed on the computer screen as though the operator was standing in front of the actual panel.

sophisticated and intelligent system

Reza Akhavan, CEO of Pars Ajirak, GFE’s appointed distributor for Iran, comments, “The sheer scale of the AVA General complex meant that the fire safety system needed to be sophisticated and intelligent."

Reza Akhavan adds, "We worked closely with the client and the experts at GFE throughout the design, installation, and commissioning stages to ensure the final solution would meet the bespoke requirements for each of the different areas in the complex.
