As in all installations of this type, a good security system against possible unforeseen events is essential, and it is in this field where they opted for evacuation systems with certificate EN-54 of Fonestar.

At its Hinojedo plant (Cantabria) this solution has been installed which is integrated by the central public address and voice alarm ZS-2000M, ZS-1500 power stage, the ZS-4328IO in/out system, the SM-1621U USB/SD/MP3 mixer and the ZS-200M and ZS-200P emergency center microphones.

An evacuation system is crucial to send alarm messages and avoid a panic situation. This ensures faster than sirens or alarm bells.

Numerous studies and experiments have shown that people react immediately and correctly to an alarm if sufficient information is provided about the seriousness of the emergency. Especially for those in an unfamiliar environment, clear and precise instructions for the actions to be carried out can be decisive.
