In food and beverage environments, choosing the right safety knife impacts product integrity, compliance, brand reputation and employee safety, far beyond cutting performance.

This session explores what truly makes a knife “food-safe”, debunks common misconceptions, examines the cost of contamination, and provides practical guidance on selecting the right solution to protect both staff and product.
Whether you work in quality, health & safety, production or operations, you’ll gain practical insights to reduce risk and improve safety across your facility.

Revenue growth should increase profitability. But for many growing trades businesses, the opposite is happening. Overhead creeps up. Labor inefficiencies compound. Small cost leaks go unnoticed. And by the time margin erosion shows up in financial reports, it’s too late to fix it.In this session, we’ll explore how AI-powered operational intelligence helps leaders detect, predict, and prevent margin compression before it hits the bottom line. Learn how real-time visibility across jobs, teams, and overhead gives you control over net profit, not just revenue.Growth may introduce pressure, but AI restores control.

Smoke remains the leading cause of fire-related deaths,and effective smoke control is critical for safe evacuation and building protection. In this webinar, Advanced’s Shaun Scott will explore what “good” smoke control looks like in practice.We’ll cover system types (natural, mechanical, pressurisation, extraction and compartmentation), key UK regulations including Approved Document B and BS standards, common pitfalls, and responsibilities around maintenance and certification.Delegates will gain practical insight into designing, specifying, inspecting and maintaining compliant smoke control systems.

Ideal for: fire engineers, consultants, risk assessors, building control, housing providers, facilities managers and contractors.

Join us on 23 April at 10:30am for Need to upgrade your fire detection & alarm systems? We can save you thousands!

Many sites, from schools and care homes to guest houses, student accommodation and retail units, are now looking to upgrade their fire detection systems.Common drivers include ageing conventional smoke detectors reaching end of life, regulatory changes following renovations, the introduction of Martyn’s Law, and the need to reduce false alarms with more advanced multi-sensor detection. Organisations are also seeking improved functionality such as BS 7273-4 compliant door release, remote monitoring and better audit trails.In this webinar, C-TEC’s Andy Green and Brian Foster will demonstrate how the company’s latest innovations can significantly reduce upgrade costs. This includes the new CA740 device, which can convert conventional fire systems into addressable systems without requiring additional cabling.For larger systems, some sites have already achieved upgrade cost reductions of up to 40%.

This is a practical session for anyone considering upgrading or modernising their fire detection systems.

NOTE this event is May not March as on image for the event : Join us on 8 May at 10:30am for Woman in Fire Safety.

This interactive panel session will shine a light on the achievements of women in the UK fire sector with the aim of further increasing diversity across the industry.

Join us as we explore not only what more can be done to encourage women to seek a career in the fire sector, but also hear how leading women in the sector have achieved career progression.
The panel will share personal experiences from their time in the sector in this informative Q&A format. We will also focus on Fire Safety Matters’ Women in Fire Safety Campaign, which shares these objectives. We will also seek feedback from attendees to help shape this campaign, which include the Women in Fire Safety Awards.

The UK security market is growing but when it comes to alarm connectivity, installers and ARCs continue to face real-world challenges around reliability, complexity and variability of certification standards.
In this webinar, Lee Kerry, Head of Technical Services at Kings Secure Technologies will draw on his insights gathered from decades in the industry and share the common pain points shaping the UK market – from connectivity issues and device complexity to time-consuming installs and lack of product durability. He is joined by Kendall Paix, Chief Product and Technology Officer at Permaconn who undertook the challenge to find solutions to these problems and set new standards for alarm connectivity in the UK&I.

Together, they’ll unpack:

• The real connectivity challenges impacting UK installers
• How installer-led design is reshaping product development
• Why standards and certification matter more than ever
• What the new benchmark for alarm connectivity looks like

If you’re questioning how to confidently choose connectivity partners that truly meet the highest benchmarks this session is not to be missed.

This half-day focused conference will give you the clarity you need to navigate the legal changes shaping your projects, teams and responsibilities, helping you reduce risk, stay compliant, and make better decisions day-to-day.

The challenge

Warehousing and logistics environments can present a wide range of fire detection challenges, from high-bay storage and open areas through to conveyor systems, loading zones and other complex spaces where risks can vary across the site.

Why this matters

Because of this, a single approach is not always enough. Different risks may call for different detection methods, and in many cases technologies can work side by side to provide more suitable coverage for the application.

A practical overview

Our Warehousing & Logistics page provides an overview of some of the key challenges these environments can present. It also looks at how specialist technologies such as beam smoke detection, aspirating smoke detection, flame detection and linear heat detection can support protection across different areas of a site.

It also includes a case study and white paper for those who would like to explore the topic in more detail.
