Fire protection at festival

Edinburgh Festival Fringe operator, C venues, chose to have an EMS FireCell system installed to protect its new, pop-up, multiplex venue at this year’s festival.

C venues took over a Victorian, multi-storey office block in Edinburgh and transformed it into performance spaces, bars and restaurants. Atlantas Security & Electrical carried out the installation of the wireless FireCell system, providing temporary fire protection to the grade A listed building for the festival’s duration.

Ian Watson from Atlantas said: “The FireCell system was easy to install and technical assistance from support staff was excellent. Due to the nature of the client’s specific theatrical requirements, the custom programming was quickly achieved by EMS technical, showing the adaptability of the system.”

The wire-free system is also portable.
