Our fire escaping offerings
Fire safety training
In Kenya, certain staff members are legally required to undergo fire safety training and serve as designated fire wardens. They must understand fire classes, extinguisher use, evacuation procedures and their responsibilities during an emergency.
Optimum encourages training for all staff and family members, enabling everyone to respond safely if a fire occurs.
Our qualified trainers cover the fire triangle, discovering a fire, types of fires, extinguishing agents, selecting the right extinguisher and safe extinguisher use. Training is practical, engaging and designed to build confidence.
Emergency lighting
Emergency lighting is essential for safe evacuation and activates when normal lighting fails. It illuminates escape routes and open areas long enough for people to move out safely.
Key categories include escape route lighting, open area or anti-panic lighting and high-risk task area lighting. These distinctions ensure each part of the building is adequately supported during an emergency.
Optimum supplies emergency lighting systems that comply with relevant British Safety Standards and are tailored to your building layout and occupancy levels.
