Sprinkler Systems - Safety and Protection
Marine sprinkler systems are fixed fire-protection installations that automatically discharge water or water mist when heat activates sprinkler heads. They protect accommodation areas, service spaces, machinery spaces, cargo areas, and other vessel compartments.
ProShipWorks provides end-to-end support to source and supply Sprinkler Systems for marine vessels, ship operators, industrial facilities, maintenance teams and procurement departments.
