The Challenges of Sunrise before NFire

Sunrise is a multistorey building. So, wiring will involve civil work. Also, the lengthy wiring was estimated to be 5 times the total cost of the system. It was clear that Sunrise needed completely wireless devices. The fact that storage facilities are always prone to fire hazards, and caution is necessary to avoid loss of property and life. Hence, it is crucial to incorporate fire risk assessments periodically in wareshouses and factories to avoid possible fire hazards.

Electrical faults, chemicals, flammable liquids, lighting and even packing can raise ignition. In any sort of emergency, alerting and dedicated evacuation is important. Since the architecture of the building is new, Sunrise was looking for such a solution that could do no damage to the building whilst protecting it.
