New draft law on fire protection in EN standards

The fire design from a fire protection design can affect in several different ways.

The problem seems to lie in habit and attitude. That you project based on the customer's demand. Which often means cost-effective fire protection based on authority requirements. As the sustainable aspect is usually excluded.

The MLC has submitted a bill to the Riksdag, which underlines the need for changes in the area. It highlights specific challenges in door environments, particularly in fire protection and security doors. It points to knowledge gaps in the design and equipment before an upgrade of fire doors or escape doors.

Further emphasis is placed on the lack of fire and smoke tightness despite upgraded doors.

MLC emphasizes the importance of knowledge and proper execution in this area and points out that this gap in skills is often seen in remodeling. To tackle these issues, MLC is proposing training for professional roles that install security doors, fire doors and escape doors as well as CE marked doors where certification is required to meet building codes and safety requirements.

In the social context, questions are raised about whether responsibility should lie with the entrepreneur and the impact on social sustainability by guaranteeing safe workplaces for professionals in areas where there are potential risks of fire and explosion. Overall, the MLC presents a concrete proposal to the Riksdag to address the identified challenges in door environments and improve overall fire safety and building standards.
