If your company stores hazardous goods, you most certainly would like to see these to be well protected against fire. Particularly, storage of hazardous goods in larger quantities (more than 10,000 kg) requires special attention. In many cases, council authorities will specify requirements for such storage.
Storage of hazardous goods shall be properly protected. In many cases, if protection level 1 applies, extinguishing systems are required. For example automatic sprinkler systems and deluge systems (possibly with addition of a foam concentrate), automatic gaseous fire extinguishing systems and automatic Hi-Ex systems using inside or outside air. In addition to technical systems preconditions such as structural and organizational measures apply for an effective protection.
We are independent experts and can be commissioned for both new and existing protection systems. This may include the following activities:
- Inspection (baseline-inspection)
- Assessing basic assumptions
- Preparing an Inspection Plan
- Design assessment
- Conducting first and follow-up inspections including inspection certification

Inspection and Certification Water Mist Systems
Kiwa FSS has a lot of experience inspecting and certifying water mist protection systems, based on both the CCV inspection schemes as compliance with standards. Kiwa FSS also conducts random inspections for certification bodies.
Air Permeability Test Reporting
Gaseous fire extinguishing systems are often used as a fire protection system. As a fire safety expert, Kiwa FSS can measure the air permeability of a room and thus determine the effectiveness of the extinguishing system.
Inspection Foam Extinguishing Protection - Foam Extinguishing System
As an experienced partner in fire safety, Kiwa Fire Safety & Security (Kiwa FSS) applies a comprehensive approach to all relevant aspects of your foam extinguishing protection during a Foam Extinguishing System Inspection.
Inspection Emergency Lighting
During an Emergency Lighting Inspection, Kiwa assesses the basic assumptions for the emergency lighting as well as the design data to determine that emergency lighting meets the objective.
Fixed dry aerosol fire extinguishing components - K23001
K23001 Product Certification Scheme for nonpressurized condensed aerosol generators and components used in fixed fire extinguishing systems.
K21045 Fire Protection Systems
The K21045 Fire Protection Systems Assessment scheme is a scheme for Testing, Inspecting and Certification (TIC) Fire Protection Systems.
EN-NTA 8133 test Lithium Fire Extinguishers
In order to be sold on the Dutch market, portable fire extinguisher must have the Dutch Approval Mark (Dutch: Rijkstypekeur). Test methods for different fire classes are included in EN 3-7. However, there is currently no designated test method for lithium fire extinguishers in EN 3-7. That is why Kiwa offers lithium fire extinguisher testing according to the Dutch Technical Agreement NTA 8133.
Test/Measuring Trailer for Water-Based Extinguishing Systems Water Supply Capacity
The water supply capacity of water-based extinguishing systems shall be checked periodically to confirm whether the required capacity is still available. Kiwa R2B has a custom build test/measuring trailer equipped with a calibrated capacity meter and auxiliary hoses and fittings.
