Another Award Nomination: Fire Innovation of the Year
Despite the coronavirus crisis we are all dealing with, there has been ample good news too. For example, fire safety is being recognised as a vital industry alongside security. And great work is being done by our industry to mitigate the risks of infection and enable our technicians and inspectors to continue their key work. One further reason for hope is that innovation is being propelled. Research & development must continue in order to provide our industry with new solutions.
One company celebrating these successes is the Safety & Health Excellence (SHE) Awards who announced their shortlist for 2020! Fire Innovation of the Year 2020 has nominated Portalevel® TOUCH by Coltraco Ultrasonics.

The winners will be announced at a gala dinner hosted by comedian Hugh Dennis on 22 September 2020 at the Vox, Resorts World Birmingham. (Something for us all to look forward to after this intense period!)
