Activities
Main EU Legislative Proposals: - The Fire Information Exchange Platform (FIEP)
- Develop knowledge and competency to ensure fire safety adequately accompanies the energy transition.
- Address the fire risks associated with the new forms of energy and ensure regular inspections.
- Stimulate (or foster) scientific research on improving the fire safe behaviour of people and the effectiveness
of interventions in the field of Community Fire Safety.
- Closing data gaps and paving the way for Pan-European fire safety efforts
- Harmonised European fire statistics
- Improve EU-wide communication and collaboration on fire safety
- Realise better cooperation between the Member States and industry on market surveillance.

an EU-standard for end-use products.

escape quickly enough or cannot escape at all, install domestic sprinklers as they are an indispensable
solution in these circumstances.
