Therefore, understanding the causes of factory fires
Eliminating fire hazards is crucial!
Come and learn together
The frequent causes of factory fires
01

Violation of welding regulations
Electric welding, as one of the common types of welding operations, belongs to hot work. The molten metal sparks on the job site will splash everywhere, and careless operation can easily cause fire accidents. Unauthorized welding, failure to obtain approval for hot work operations, and failure to remove surrounding combustibles during welding are all prohibited welding operations.
02
Improper management
The laying of electrical circuits and the use of electrical equipment are not standardized, and the on-site construction fire safety management is not in place. Workers engage in illegal construction operations.

03
Violating the use of combustible materials
Violating the use of flammable and combustible materials, improper stacking of combustible materials, illegal construction occupying fire separation distances, inadequate fire protection facilities, and insufficient fire water sources.
04
Obstruction of safety exits

Violation of regulations in setting up employee dormitories in factory warehouses, obstructed evacuation routes and safety exits, low fire resistance rating of building materials, and rapid spread of fires.
05
Diverse architectural forms and difficulties in firefighting
Once a fire breaks out in a factory, the flames of the fire will bake, and the water flow from the fire extinguishing system will accumulate, which can easily cause building collapse. However, workshops that store materials in a centralized manner have larger storage spaces, smaller fire separation distances, and denser material storage, making it more difficult to extinguish the fire.

Failure to detect fires in a timely manner
The fire was discovered late, and the person responsible for fire safety and fire safety responsibilities were not clearly defined. Duty inspections were not strengthened to promptly eliminate fire hazards.
