Using standards can offer a set of powerful business and marketing tools for fire equipment manufacturing organizations of all sizes.
Particularly in sectors highly regulated at UK and EU levels, such as fire equipment manufacturing, standards have been key agents in consistently meeting regulatory compliance and supporting good stakeholder relations.
Standards, including rules, guidelines, and definitions, have also become recognized indicators of quality and safety.

You can use standards to fine-tune your performance and manage risks while operating in more efficient and sustainable ways. They’ll allow you to demonstrate the quality of what you do to your customers and they help you to see how to embed best practices into your organization.
Other benefits of implementing standards include:
Improving performance - success is all about how you perform at every level of your organization. Standards, such as BS EN ISO 9001 Quality management systems, promote a culture of continual improvement.
Reducing business risk - businesses today simply can’t afford to take an improvised, reactive approach to risk. Using standards, such as BS EN ISO 22301 Business continuity management systems, can help you to identify your risks and minimize them.
Becoming more sustainable - by helping you to take a close look at how you’re using energy and resources, using our standards, like BS EN ISO 14001 Environmental management systems, can save you money and improve your image while benefiting the environment.
Encouraging innovation - in a global economy of rapidly emerging new technologies and markets, standards, such as BS ISO 44001 Collaborative business relationships management systems, help set the rules and establish the frameworks to facilitate innovation through collaboration.
Ensuring safety - an effective occupational health and safety (OH&S) management system will help you to protect and enhance your most important asset, your people, to drive business excellence. Standard BS EN ISO 45001 enables organizations to provide safe and healthy working conditions that prevent work-related injury and ill health, and proactively improve the organization’s OH&S performance.
