Saned Urges Government and Private Entities in Sharjah to Install ‘Aman’ Early Warning Safety System
Based on its objectives to provide the highest levels of safety in Sharjah, Saned Integrated Facilities Management invites all government and private entities, industrial and commercial facilities and residential buildings to install the early warning ‘Aman’ system.
The new system and device, implemented by Saned, is supervised by the Sharjah Prevention and Safety Authority. The device links fire systems in the facilities to the General Directorate of Civil Defense and Saned, with the goal to reduce response times to combat with fire hazards and emergencies.
Eng. Sultan Al Ketbi, CEO of Saned Facilities Management, stressed the need to install the early warning system ‘Aman’, which plays a great role in reducing response times for fire-related emergencies. The system works to monitor the validity of alarm and fire systems in facilities and ensure their effectiveness, which contributes to protecting lives and property and provides the highest levels of protection and safety in Sharjah.
Al Ketbi highlighted that the system has been successfully employed to aid in the early detection of fires; a tower in the Emirate of Sharjah recently benefited from the ‘Aman’ system and suffered no losses due to a recent fire emergency.
Al Ketbi added, "Since beginning work on the ‘Aman’ device, more than 7753 devices have been employed in various areas of Sharjah. We are working diligently within our strategic plan to cover all residential, commercial and industrial facilities and areas, to ensure compliance with the mandatory installation of ‘Aman’ across all facilities in the Emirate, for the purposes of public safety.”
Al Ketbi further explained, "We seek to reach 100% compliance from owners of real estate, facilities and amenities in Sharjah, to which the decision to install and connect a safety system to protect buildings from fires and accidents is in line with our goal to enhance the overall well being of all residing in the Emirate.”
‘Aman’ is an early warning system adopted in the Emirate of Sharjah, which prompted industrial and commercial establishments and residential buildings to install safety systems to protect community members from fire hazards around the clock.
The system is in direct contact with the Sharjah Civil Defense Authority, and links to a control room that operates according to the highest international safety standards. In cooperation with the Sharjah Prevention and Safety Authority, the system strengthens the security and safety strategy of the Emirate of Sharjah and helps spread awareness of best practices in accident and fire prevention.
